Basbousa is a delectable Middle Eastern dessert, made primarily from semolina flour, sugar, yogurt, and coconut. This sweet and fragrant cake is soaked in a fragrant sugar syrup, giving it a moist, rich texture that's simply irresistible. Traditionally hailing from Egypt, Basbousa is often topped with almonds or walnuts for an added crunch.
