Sherbet from cookies
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The sherbet is made from cookies, condensed milk, nuts (you can use any kind to your taste), and butter. You can shape it however you like, but the dessert should be served only cold. In the East, this treat is traditionally served with coffee or as an appetizer at a buffet table. Serve chilled.
