Iraqi Easter, Christmas and Eid Cookies (Kleecha) كليجة العراقية /اطيب كليجة العيد

Klecha or Kolchee or Kelecha are the traditional Iraqi cookies or pastries made at Christmas, Easter and Eid. They mostly come with three different fillings. Dates, coconut and walnuts. Each filling has its own shape. The one with dates filling is the most famous in the form of layers cut in the form of a rectangle. As for the coconut filling, it usually comes in round shapes with a special design on the top as a result of the mold used for it. The last one with walnut filling is half moon shaped with creases at the edges. Each of them has its own distinct and delicious taste, especially with a cup of tea. Note: This is a very small quantity, feel free to increase the amount if you like. It yields about 18 to 20 pieces of each kind of the filling.
