Kuih Raya refers to a variety of traditional Malay festive cookies that are commonly made and enjoyed during Hari Raya Aidilfitri, which marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting. These cookies are often prepared and shared with family, friends, and neighbors during this joyous occasion.

Some popular types of Kuih Raya include:

Kuih Bangkit: These are delicate, melt-in-your-mouth cookies made from tapioca flour, coconut milk, and sugar. They often have a light and airy texture and are flavored with pandan or a hint of vanilla.

Kuih Tart (Pineapple Tarts): These are small pastries topped with pineapple jam. The pastry is often buttery and crumbly, while the jam provides a sweet and tangy contrast.

Kuih Makmur (Ma’amoul): These are stuffed cookies usually filled with sweet fillings such as dates, nuts, or coconut. They are often dusted with powdered sugar and have a rich, buttery flavor.

Kuih Semperit (Butter Cookies): These are simple butter cookies made from flour, butter, and sugar. They are often piped into various shapes before baking and may be topped with cherries or nuts.

Kuih Kapit (Love Letters): These are thin, crispy wafer-like cookies made from a batter of flour, coconut milk, sugar, and eggs. They are often rolled into cylindrical shapes and are a favorite among both children and adults.
