My grandparents were 100% Italian and I grew up eating the best cookies. These were my favorites. The cookies shaped in a knot or roll were harder in texture . Great for dunking. Pastel icing, made a little thicker was used on the shaped ones. So good!

My mom's family is Italian (my grandma was from Sicily, my grandpa was from Abruzzo) and we make what my mom calls "Sicilian cookies" that are similar to these with lemon and orange peel added to the cookies. And I think we use almond extract instead of vanilla (but hey, whichever flavor floats your boat, either one is good to me). They are awesome!

My wonderful mother with a Sicilian background made these and hermit cookies. She called them Italian Biscuits. And you are right, they are not too sweet. So they are a little biscuit like. Seeing them makes me think of my mom so much. She was very well know for her Italian biscuits. Thanks for the memory.❤️

The Italian couple next door to my parents during retirement, used to make these every christmas. I've never known the recipe so I'm looking forward to putting this all together. They would make a confectioners sugar icing that was thicker and dyed either red or green. They also used almond extract and vanilla extract, you never knew what you were going to get, until you took a bite😊

Just came across your recipe for soft Italian cookies. I used to have a recipe from an old Italian grandma not mine. The cookie was called SCALLILA all I can remember is that the batter had four egg shells of lard in it and 6 eggshells of whiskey. The icing was a mixture of honey and whiskey. I would love to find this recipe, hopefully you can help. I absolutely love all of your recipes. Thank you for the time it has taken you to make all those videos.

Does it actually matter (really) whether you use salted or unsalted butter in any recipe? I cook and bake extensively and always use salted. I recognize that I have a bias for salt (supertaster), but I've never been able to tell a difference other than when butter is the main focus (on hot fresh bread).
@SugarSpunRun
@SugarSpunRun 25 күн бұрын
It does! Also a super taster here and the primary reason I recommend using unsalted butter is actually because I want to get the perfect balance of salt, I’m certainly not afraid of it at all! When you use unsalted butter, you have complete control over exactly how much salt is going into the recipe meaning you neither overpower nor underpower it with the added salt. When you use salted butter, there are some variation and you may not always get the same exact flavor, so I use unsalted butter for control. With something like fresh bread though, salted would absolutely be the way to go. I hope that helps clear things up!

@SugarSpunRun
@SugarSpunRun 25 күн бұрын
My Hamilton Beach was one of the most powerful hand mixers I ever had, I don’t know if they still make them like that but the one I got for my wedding 10 years ago was a workhorse and was fantastic. The Breville is what I currently have and it’s great, but it’s more pricey. I also have a KitchenAid five speed that can do anything I need it to (no bread doughs but I wouldn’t use any hand mixer for that), it’s not as powerful and whipping things like meringue can take quite a bit but it’s pretty reliable.
