POTD 16: Moldovan Gingerbread cookies


Candies and sweets are quite different here. While you will find your Snicker bar and M&Ms at most stores, the desserts that Moldovans prefer are ones you’ll find more easily. This gingerbread-like cookie is my favorite kind of Moldovan cookie.

A couple weeks ago, my friend Maggie set up a tour of a bread and beer factory in her town. We were able to see the whole process of everything made by this company, which included breads, cookies, sodas, beers, and cvas (a non-alcoholic beer that isn’t bad). We also were able to try some cookies fresh from the oven. And they had additional flavors of their gingerbread cookies (honey and peanut butter) So good!
