Malida also known as Maleeda, is a traditional Afghan Central Asian sweet dish, made by initially creating a dough out of wheat flour, semolina, butter and milk. The dough is then baked on a round flat pan, once baked you break apart the cookie into crumbs. Afghan women sit together and grind the dough pieces in the palms of their hands while saying a prayer to bless the sweet dessert, as it will become a Nazr (food that is blessed by being prayed upon).
