Makmur Cookies

Hello,

Every year during Eid al-Fitr celebration especially in Borneo, there's one cookies called kuih makmur or kuih mor where almost every household has made or bought some ready-made because kuih makmur are a must have for Eid. As far as I remembered, these cookies have been a tradition in our family since I was a little girl, every bite of these cookies brought back my childhood memories.
