I remembered vividly when my mom took me and my brother to our Indian neighbor’s house for celelbrating Deepavali, we had enjoyed munching one of the cookies which they had shared with us.
I didn’t know the name of the cookie, but it was flower shape with many holes that look alike a beehive.
We called it “Flower Bee Cookie” because it does appear as the name we had created.
Every year when the festival of Deepavali is around the corner, if you are residing in Asian country, you may not missed these “Flower Bee Cookie” which is originally known as ROSE COOKIE sold in the market.
They are sold in tall plastic containers, stacked up to the brim, brownish and crispy that look so good to munch on.
Nowadays, ROSE COOKIES are sold with different additions. You can buy ROSE COOKIES coated with black sesame seeds, white sesame seeds and green tea flavor too.
This sweet flavor cookies which are fried to crisp were originally found in South India.
Rose cookies are known as Acchu Murukku in Tamil, which is locally known as “Rose Muruku” due to the resemble of the shape of rose flower.

The cookie is one of the best cookies made on Deepavali by our Hindu families I think it is their national dish yea it looks like a pick rose but I do not know its taste. Actually is Anglo Indian cookie but is famous among the Indian during Deepavali festival and among the Christians during Christmas. It is made on the pattern on the Christmas fruit cake.
I think it will be delicious in taste.
