Thans for leaving your comment Ramos. I am sure that Turkish Cypriots have incorporated many of Greek Cypriot recipes in their cuisine as we have done with yours. Mamoul have a similarity to Loukoumia tou Gamou but are quite different.

Hi Ivy,
It is a good try indeed. I was also looking for the original recipe…
You should have submitted this recipe for the Pastries for Peace event as it constitutes one of the very good examples of shared recipes by Greek and Turkish Cypriots. The latter calls it 'pastish' and serve them in Turkish Cypriot wedding parties. Also, not to mention that Rosa's 'mamoul' recipe is very popular in Cyprus too -which is an other option for wedding parties…

I love these. They are similar the the variety of Amygdalota called "Egolavous"…essentially almond macaroons.

Your photos are beautiful and so festive. I am amazed how you reacted and salvaged the cookies. I would have thrown it away but yet you have created a recipe worth making.
