Arabic sweets are a danger. They are small and eaten as a snack, but they are so sweet, tender and crunchy at the same time that once you start eating them it is not so easy to stop. They are generally served with tea, but for children they are ideal as a snack with a good glass of milk or a homemade smoothie. If you prefer them for dessert, they are delicious alone. They don't need anything else.
