Μελομακάρονα (Melomakárona)

“Akrivi’s Christmas Cookies”

This is a fun Greek honey cookie recipe from a cookbook I was gifted for my birthday. Recipe is taken from Feasting & Fasting in Crete by Diana Farr Louis. From what I am told and from what is written in the book, melomakárona are a very classic Christmas cookie that are common across households during the holidays. I opt out of a walnut filling and just use chopped walnuts on their own as the topper.
