Ramadan is almost finished, and Eid is next week! In Morocco, we cook special dishes to celebrate Eid: in the morning we prepare a fancy breakfast with Baghrir, Msemmen, Fried Msemmen stuffed with almonds, and other fancy pastries. At lunch time, we make tagine of meat with caramelized prunes or steamed lamb shoulder flavored with cumin, and in the afternoon, we serve the not-to-be-missed Moroccan mint tea and cookies! So today, I am going to show you how to prepare a special cookie called "Cat Paws", which is basically 2 cookies shaped into cat paws, sandwiched with a filling, and dipping in chocolate! This is a small cookie with big flavors!!! you are going to love it!

@ranixxbollyfan thank you Kenzakh. Yes it's F not C. 360 F = 180 C.

@cookingwithalia OOh one more question! :D I have putten the cookies in the refrigerator for more then half an hour because when i take them out the chocolate seems melting :S do you know how this is possible? Bcuz I need to ride one hour before i get to my grandma for ied and i'm affraid that they will be melted by then :( yours seems to cool and hard whilst mine dont! also i have used milk chocolate, not dark cuz i dont like that!! thankyouu! x

[cookingwithalia]

@ranixxbollyfan just keep them in a the fridge a little longer. you can also put them in an airtight container and place it in the freezer for few hours before driving to your grandma!

@rayhananina if you google a questions such as "what is 150 grams of flour in cups" you will get the responses. Also, you can google for 'kitchen metrics converter'. hope this helps!

I'm gonna make them without a filling, just with chocolate.

Awwwwww!!!!

@ranixxbollyfan Milk chocolate melts at a far lower temperature than dark. That may be part of your problem.

Some substitutions do not work all that well, no matter how logical they seem.
