Italian Ricotta Cookies

[@debbies.3109]

🎄 MaryAnn and Joe, these are my favorite kind of Italian cookies! If I was there eating them with you, I’d be in my glory! It touched my heart when you said to everybody, you were spending Christmas Eve with us and we were your Christmas family. You’re the sweetest couple. Love you back! 🎄❤️

[@sherryakers9495]

It's so nice to see and hear someone who loves cooking and talking as much as me. Love to you and blessings.🙋🙏😊

[@lamiaatallah1943]

Merry Christmas to the Cinque family. Happy and safe holidays

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

Thank you, same to you!!

[@shanina-iza]

You guys are the warmest people on KZbin. Happy Holidays! 🎄🎄🎄

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

Thank you very much Merry Christmas

[@susanjohnson3973]

Cookies look scrumptious & my mouth is watering! Love being with you while MaryAnn is baking or cooking! Thanks so much for the tip about using older eggs to release the shell! Good to know! We all love both of you, too ~ sweet to be with you, dear MaryAnn & Joe! Hugs, ~Susan

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

Great! Glad you got a new tip to use!! Thank you for stopping by and Happy New Year

[@marybethcompetiello199]

I love watching MaryAnn bake for two reasons: she makes everything look so delectable and she also makes it look easy. She doesn't get nervous. She talks you (and herslef) through it nicely, calmly, and makes it fun. Her mannerism, her humor, her home are all so inviting and offer comfort; she makes her and Joe's home feel like your own. It's obvious too how much Joe appreciates and loves MaryAnn. You guys a great pair!! Merry Christmas!!! Xoxoxoxo

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

Hey!!! Hope you had a nice Christmas day!!! We ate too much, I'm uncomfortable..lol..Merry Christmas to you and Guy and the entire family !! Did you stay home? Not sure if you have tried to get to NY at all.... Xoxoxo

[@JT-wn7wb]

New fan. Love to watch the two of you work together. 😋. Great work!

[@rhondaz356]

[@barbaragomes5230]

Maryann, these look so delicious. I would make a deal with you - you make um, I’ll eat um! You have both shown us the joy of Christmas, the spirit of Christmas, and the heart of Christmas. Wishing you a happy, healthy and blessed holiday.❤️🎄☃️🤶🏻🎅🏻☃️🎄❤️💕💕💕

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

[@leticiahernandez4857]

I loved this video* I adore watching Maryann bake and cook* she is very sweet* My Mom used to make these cookies when I was little. I will be trying this recipe this week. I am excited to make them. Do they have to be refrigerated since you are using milk on top? or can I leave them out? Hope you both had a great Christmas deezie

Hi, can you clarify... You said (1) tablespoon each of baking powder and baking soda, however the written recipe shows (1) Teaspoon of each... Which is correct? Thank you

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

I'll forward that request to Maryann she's needs to check the recipe. I'll get back to you on it, they're delish

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

It's teaspoon not tablespoon, MaryAnn just double checked. Thanks!

[@barbaracampbell2034]

My grandma made these cookies but she put Anisette in the icing.

[@LifeWithMaryAnnJoe]

Yes that's good!! Merry Christmas
