Anginetti italian easter cookies. Add flour baking powder and salt. While anginetti can be served with or without colorful sprinkles nonpareils the sprinkles are what make these cookies especially popular for italian weddings which is why i featured this recipe in my 7th coffeehouse mystery espresso shot first edition 2008 where a spectacular wedding takes place at the heart of a perplexing murder mystery. Generally gf flours suck up moisture so when i halved the recipe i used which called for 3 eggs i used 2 instead of 1 and a 1 2 and they were fine delicious even. The anginetti recipe is a dream come true.

I made a 1 2 batch of a very simple knot cookie recipe just the other day a bit different from this recipe using pamela s gf flour and i added a heaping tsp. These taste very similar to the lemon drop cookies i buy from italian american bakeries in my community. It really tastes like the authentic quality of melting in your mouth heaven and a not too sweet experience. Thank you for this awesome recipe. I altered the icing recipe to have orange essence lime juice and vanilla extract which gave it a lovely little bite.
