holiday cookie #2
on a whirlwind visit to terry's, i was introduced to the finest cookie in the universe.
cuccidati. buttery, tender dough wrapped around a filling of figs macerated in strong spirits, smeared with an anise-spiked glaze and sprinkled with those tiny, colorful nonpareils. magnificent.
it must be said that terry did the lion's share of the work while i sat at her kitchen table and watched. and ate the rejects.
two down, ten to go!
Comments
for the record, while I made the filling prior to your arrival, I think you did exactly half of the work while you were here. and you were clearly the better roller and cutter.
