December is all about making our Christmas cookies in Kukla’s Kouzina, so we put together a series of how-to videos of our mom's (Kukla's) most-requested favorites. Following in our Kukla’s footsteps, we bake about 200 of each cookie to share with friends and family for the holidays, so now is the perfect time to welcome you into our kouzina for a first-hand look at how we do it.
We kick off this series with Kourambiedes (κουραμπιέδες), a tender Greek shortbread cookie dusted with confectioners’ sugar that melts in your mouth (seriously!). These cookies are so extraordinary that they’re also made for weddings and special occasions. Our focus this week is on the perfect dough texture, how to roll out the cookies, and how to dust them after baking.

NOTE: The dough texture here applies to most of our cookies, so keep this in mind when we post new cookie videos.
