Raisins are an important ingredient in Persian cuisine, adding sweetness to yogurt, rice, and braised meat dishes. They also add sweetness to desserts and these cookies, which are as common in Iran as chocolate chip cookies are to Americans.

When you say the name of these cookies to most people, the Argentinian version is the one that comes to mind most commonly (although there are numerous country-specific iterations). Even within Argentina, these dulce de leche-filled cookie sandwiches can be found plain, rolled in coconut, coated in chocolate, or coated in meringue, like the Chilean chilenitos. The Spanish version from which this cookie takes its name is more like a candy or confection, made with almonds bound by honey and spices and coated in powdered (icing) sugar.

Others have taken it to mean a term for the type of people who’d enjoy such a simple cookie since the term has also been documented as a slang term for sailors, common people, and others on the fringes of society. However the name came about, it is an appealing cookie.
