Hello everybody! This is my grandmother’s traditional Greek recipe for Melomakarona. This was my great, great grandmother's recipe and it was beloved by the entire village. I remember when I was young, watching my mother and my grandmother make it. My grandpa used to hover over the stove because he knew he would give them out to all the children of the village for New Years to make all the children so happy for the new year
Thank you for watching and enjoy your day and everyday! Love you all and Subscribe to my channel for more beautiful Greek Recipes
