During the Raya festivities, one of the things we’re all looking forward to is definitely the food! Every house you visit is bound to have some good rendang, ketupat and not to mention… a corner filled with cookies! Here’re 8 Malaysian Instagrammers with absolutely beautiful Raya cookies that we’re totally craving right now.
1. Mad Treats (@mad_treats)
The Insta-account Mad Treats is a mother-daughter affair and they aren’t focused on just cookies. They make cupcakes, cakes and other forms of desserts too. For Raya, their Oreo Florentines are a must-try and it’s a twist on the classic Italian treat. This extremely addictive snack is packed with almond flakes, crushed Oreos, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and black sesame seeds.

Anyone a fan of Nutella here? Indulge in these Nutella Pods for some chewy and chocolatey goodness that are out-of-the-box. For Raya, we would typically see plenty of cookie jars around but these are actually tart-shaped and pumped with lots of rich Nutella and topped off with chocolate chips. Fun fact: these desserts are actually baked by an architect!
