About Kourabiedes

Kourabiedes are traditional Greek shortbread cookies, typically enjoyed during festive occasions like Christmas. Made with a simple blend of butter, flour, powdered sugar, and almonds, these crumbly treats are coated in a generous layer of powdered sugar, giving them their signature snowy appearance. Their rich, buttery flavor comes from high-quality butter, while the almonds add a subtle nuttiness and slight crunch. While Kourabiedes are undeniably delicious, they are also calorie-dense and high in sugar and fat, making them best savored in moderation. They are free of artificial additives and often include a splash of brandy or rosewater for enhanced flavor. While not particularly nutrient-rich, their wholesome, straightforward ingredients reflect the essence of Mediterranean baking. Perfect for indulging alongside a cup of coffee or tea, Kourabiedes are more a treat for the soul than a health-conscious snack.
