Melomakarona It's that time of year again, when the About Guides get together and share their cookie recipes. So let's get started.

Our guide to Greek food has a special recipe for Melomakarona which is a traditional Greek holiday cookie made with cinnamon andcloves, soaked in a honey syrup, and sprinkled with sesame seeds,walnuts, and cinnamon.

A reviewer gave these ginger-spiced vegan oatmeal and cranberry cookies 5 out of 5 stars and called them "absolutely perfect".

John Mitzewich, our guide to American food offers this recipe and says “America's favorite gourd meets America's favorite cookie, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies!”

Elaine Lemm, our guide to British food says, “This irresistible Scottish Shortbread is traditionally eaten on New Years Eve, but is so good you can really eat it anytime.”
