Italian Ricotta Christmas Cookies

[@mollydolly9909]

I am so happy to see you taking off your ring to bake! I watch food network a lot and I am always frustrated when the chefs do not remove their rings and such before handling food, so thank you very much!!

[@lostinmyspace4910]

I make these cookies, and they're wonderful. Even older people really like the softness of the cookie, it's soft and pillowy because of the fluffiness of the ricotta cheese, One thing I do when icing, I grab the cookie, turn it upside down, and rotate in a circular motion while dipping the cookie in the icing. It seems quicker Icing doesn't take long to do when this method is exercised. THUMBS UP!!!

This is just lovely. The background music is soft so as not to overpower Laura’s voice. Also, skipping ahead so the loud noise of the mixer is not overwhelming the scene. It’s the small stuff that counts. Thoroughly enjoyed the presentation and enthusiasm. Good job. Can’t wait to make these!

Wow..brings back memories...these are wonder ful....glad I found this recipe!!

I made this recipe while substituting cinnamon for nutmeg. I used just powered sugar and milk for the glaze. The cookies turned out well and tasted good. If I were to make it again, I would add some vanilla with no cinnamon/nutmeg. I would also cut this recipe in half or quarter since it made an endless amount of cookies.

[@Spinachtiger]

Sounds great!

[@ScarletPaolicchimomblogger]

Yum. I love your recipes. I have to try this Christmas cookies!

[@cristinav5043]

im so glad i made this recipe i made them too big ! but i know better next time thank you for this recipe

[@Spinachtiger]

You're welcome.

[@effiefoster7648]

Made these cookies. The best and makes a large batch. I needed to cook them a little longer.

[@fernandaspino9793]

Angela, I viewed four videos for Ricotta cookies and I want you to know that yours is the most informative. I love your use of the pastry brush to add the glaze....genius. Also, I did not know that you could freeze the batter for later use. Thanks for that piece of advice. And the nutmeg....great addition for flavouring the cookies. Lastly, great video work...well done.

[@Spinachtiger]

Thank you so much.

[@visitor3756]

Fern Spino Thanks I was watching and wondering if it could freeze.

[@Spinachtiger]

1 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temperature. 1¾ cups granulated sugar. 2 eggs. 15 ounces ricotta cheese. 1 tablespoon vanilla paste (or vanilla extract) 4 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1 teaspoon baking powder. Notes: I now bake with a lot of Swerve (erythritol) to cut sugar. You can do that too. Use 2 cups confectioner's Swerve in place of sugar. 1 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temperature. 1¾ cups granulated sugar. 2 eggs. 15 ounces ricotta cheese. 1 tablespoon vanilla paste (or vanilla extract) 4 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1 teaspoon baking powder.

Spinach Tiger hi Spinach Tiger! Thank you for your video and recipe. Could you please tell - how much is your 1 cup? Is it = 15 oz like quantity of ricotta?

[@Spinachtiger]

Butter is one cup or 8 ounces. Ricotta cheese at 15 ounces is not quite 2 cups. 1 3/4 cups.

[@Frances4Drake]

Spinach Tiger thank you for the answer!

[@ambrosiafarms]

I never knew what made them so pillowy until I watched your video! RicottA cheese! Thanks for the recipe love these cookies! Merry Christmas

[@raisingforhim3186]

They look so good!

[@mariettajones3093]

Hi great video. Love your kitchen. You look good too. You said you put dough in the fridge. How long can dough be left in fridge before you use it? Also you mentioned it can be frozen. Great! But can you explain if you need to thoroughly need to defrost and then use? Do you need to mix it again??? How or what do you wrap it in to freeze? Thank you. Look forward to more recipes!!! Grazie🙏

[@Spinachtiger]

In fridge up to three days. In freezer up to 3 months. Defrost. It doesn't take long. No need to mix again. Best way to freeze. Roll in balls. put on tray in freezer. Once frozen, put in plastic bag.

[@dove7271]

Look Delicious. Will have to try some time. Thanks for the GoPro side cam. to showclose ups. God bless.☺

[@Spinachtiger]

Actually, that's an iPhone doing that second camera shot. Thanks.

[@Spinachtiger]

Sorry I just saw this. Yes you can.

[@magdelinalovegodlovegoodpe2156]

It would be nice to know how much ricotta??????????

[@Spinachtiger]

Its at the end of recipe written. Also there is a link in description and comments to the blog post. It's 15 ounces.

[@valsmush1578]

can i use organic sugar and flour?

[@Spinachtiger]

Of course.

[@Mariekr49]

Hi can these cookies be frozen? I want to make them now (2 weeks before Christmas)

[@loiecampbell3626]

She said in the video that they can be frozen.

[@christinedarrock8486]

Could you add some toasted, chopped pecans or walnuts?

[@Spinachtiger]

You could. Keep in mind that these are soft cookies, and I think that could take away from them. Try a few and see how you like it.

[@songbirdforjesus2381]

You could put nuts on top

[@Barbara-el5wl]

Thanks🤗

When I cook/bake I pull my hair back into a bun, pony tail, whatever. I do not want to risk any rogue hairs making their way into my cooking!

[@Spinachtiger]

Only on youtube!

[@bullirish]

Very true. A sloppy looking cook doesn't inspire confidence....

[@Spinachtiger]

Full recipe is at the blog post. spinachtiger.com/italian-ricotta-cookies-with-video/

[@mcdeeva1]

Its missing the lemon zest and its easier to dip in the glaze than brushing it on. If you use store bought ricotta, I would strain it but if fresh, I would not...

[@SasynaBella]

The basic recipe doesn’t have lemon zest. That’s personal taste. And this cookie is so versatile, you can add all kinds of flavors to it. I make a lemon glaze with the lemon zest, but I don’t put it in the dough.

[@Spinachtiger]

The brand I buy doesn't really need straining. Whatever works for you with glaze is great.

I'm not sure how you can call these "not sweet" with 1.75 cups of sugar per 1 cup of butter?

[@Spinachtiger]

They don't "taste as sweet" as some cookies do. You can always reduce sugar or use swerve. Now I'm baking a lot with swerve.

[@sacredsiren]

There is also almost a full pound of ricotta in there along with the butter... when you consider that the 1 3/4 cups of sugar doesn't seem as excessive.

[@charlotteorr1186]

They are not all that sweet. They have a biscuit texture. Just enough sweet to be addicting.

you gave the measurements for all the ingrediants for this mess why did you not give the Ricotta cheese measurement. come on do it right.

Look up in the comments. The list of ingredients is there. 15 ounces.

She doesn't want germs from the ring to go on the cookies and then she touches the ring before making the cookies!

Right because my staff of 20 wasn't there to watch everything. Be proud of yourself for catching that!

Why the vitriol?

[@oneitalia2312]

@@Spinachtiger ...... You're sloppy. Your hair is in your face and hanging all over the ingredients. You're a bit haphazard and I don't like the way you say "ricotta".... :) ... I didn't like the way you slopped on the glaze with the silly plastic brush and you chatter too much. This shouldn't be showbiz for hairstyles and makeup. All in all, you're not my style, hence, you're no baker. Want more vitriol???
