Baking traditional Italian cookies has always been a cherished hobby in our Italian-American home, especially during the holidays. The scent of freshly baked biscotti, amaretti, and pizzelle wafting through the kitchen was a comforting and nostalgic reminder of our family's rich culinary heritage. It wasn't just about the delicious treats; it was a tradition that brought generations together. As we gathered around the kitchen table to mix, shape, and bake these time-honored recipes passed down from our ancestors, we not only created delectable cookies but also cherished memories and a sense of belonging. Baking Italian cookies isn't just a hobby; it's a way to honor our roots and celebrate the joy of family, love, and tradition.
