Harrisa/Semolina (soogi) Cupcakes- soft, chewy cupcakes flavored with a rich syrup and garnished with slivered almonds! 

 

We tried out this recipe from Cook With Dena! Watch her video on how to make it!

​

These Middle-Eastern desserts are very easy and the best part is that they actually taste better the longer they soak the syrup. I found the best results with soaking it overnight as the cupcakes soaked all of the syrup. Also, for the syrup, you can either make your own or use storebought.

​

This dessert actually has a lot of different names, such as haresa, namoura, سبعة أكواب, etc. The actual dessert is the same.

​

We hope you try out this interesting and easy dessert!
