Koulourakia are traditional Greek cookies, often enjoyed during festive occasions, particularly during Easter. They are typically shaped into twisted or braided forms and have a golden-brown color, achieved by brushing them with egg wash before baking. The dough is made from simple ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and sometimes flavored with vanilla or orange zest. These cookies are known for their slightly crunchy texture on the outside and soft interior, making them a delightful treat with coffee or tea.
