About moroccan desserts

Dinner in Morocco often ends with a platter of fruit rather than a dessert, but the sweet course has its own repertoire: orange salad scented with cinnamon and orange blossom, sellou by the spoonful, rice puddings perfumed with mastic.

Most of them are quick, and several are made from what is already in the cupboard.

The recipes here lean toward the ones you would realistically make on a weeknight.
