Easy Dubai-Style Chewy Cookies Recipe (2 Ways) | No Pistachio Paste, No Kataifi

#cookies #dubaifood #dessert #recipe #chewy #yummy
Dubai-style chewy cookies are loved for their rich flavor and texture,
but many recipes rely on hard-to-find ingredients like kataifi or pistachio paste,
making them difficult to recreate at home.

In this video, I simplified the process by keeping the chewy marshmallow-based texture,
while using easy-to-find ingredients to create two Dubai-style chewy cookie variations.
The green version uses pistachio powder and white chocolate for a nutty sweetness,
while the dark version combines hazelnut paste with crunchy pretzels for a deeper, salty finish.
Both versions focus on a chewy exterior with a crunchy, satisfying center.

This recipe is designed to be approachable, realistic, and still visually appealing,
so anyone can enjoy the Dubai-style cookie experience without special ingredients.
Let me know in the comments which version you prefer,
