During the month of Ramadan, our fridges are always filled with arabic sweets and extra sugar syrup. This recipe for aramish pistachio cookies is a super easy way to use the leftover syrup and make these cookies that remind me of celebrations and happy moments that are not only a delicious snack but also help minimize food waste.
