Fekkas (Moroccan Biscotti)
If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. Twice-baked, crunchy cookies studded with whole almonds, raisins, and sesame seeds. Perfect for dipping in tea. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.

Step-by-Step Instructions
How do you achieve the authentic Moroccan flavor?
Start by gathering your ingredients. The magic always begins with patience and the right spices.
Mix the dough and form into long slightly flattened logs.
Bake until firm but not fully brown.
Wrap in a damp towel and let cool completely (often overnight).
Slice the logs thinly and bake the slices again until crispy and golden.
