Asbusa

"Asbusa is a cookie that I had when stationed in Egypt with the Army. They are not a very sweet cookie to me but I enjoy with tea or coffee as they seem to accompany them well, so I recomend as an appetiser or a snack between meals to relax!"

directions

  • Bring all ingredients to room temperature.
  • Use a large bowl to mix sugar and cream of wheat. Add butter then mix by hand, rubbing the butter, sugar and cream of wheat between your palms for 10 minutes or until the mixture is very well blended.
  • Add the yogurt and mix with your hands until the dough feels smooth in your hand. If it feels dry add one tablespoon of water at the time until it feels like pastry dough.
  • Butter a 13x9x2" pan and pat the dough into the pan with your hand.
  • Slice the dough in 2 x 2 inch squares or any shape you desire.
  • Press one almond half onto the surface of each piece if desired, if you do not prefer almonds you do not have to use or may try your own decoration.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am happily married to my wife Crystal who is a member here as well. We have 7 children collectivly so there are never any dull moments for us :-) I am disabled and am home all the time, I wish I could work but I am lucky to get to be with my family all the time, watch the babies grow and spend time with Crystal. I have always loved to cook, even in middle school I used to make cakes at Christmas to buy presents and got to where I made them through the year for the teachers so my little business for Christmas money grew into a pretty good job that I loved. I think my favorites to work with are cakes and candies but I can cook a wide array of foods... I do not like Phillo that much though, lol. My favorite cookbook is a Betty Crocker cookbook that was my grandmothers and it has alot of choclate and candy recipies in it, even one for my favorite fudge frosting, I will post it, it is quick and simple and delicious.
