Arabic Dessert Recipes

As the blog focuses on Middle Eastern and Indian food, I must have a category for Arabic desserts, right? No one wants to miss the Desserts and it doesn't have to be cakes and pies. Here are some finger-licking (literally) syrupy Arabic sweets that will shower you with compliments. From Kunafa to Layali Lubnan, you will find your favourite.
