Anyone have any good ideas and or recipes of traditional greek desserts. I am kind of in the dark on this one.

My favorites are melomakorona (semolina cookies flavored with orange, cinnamon and clove and dipped in honey syrup and sprinkled with walnuts), kourabiethes (almond shortbread cookies covered in powdered sugar) and karythopita (walnut cake soaked in syrup).

Good Greek yogurt with honey drizzled over it and nuts on top is also a lovely dessert.
