If you are searching for a basic orange Italian cookie recipe that grandma made in the old fashioned way, these are it.
Simple ingredients all made from scratch and fresh ingredients.
Back in Rome, Italy, grandma's mom made these when she was a child, and coming to American at 16 in the late 1800s these became a tried and true classic cookie in our family.
The recipe is super easy to follow and you can leave them plain, rolled in sugar before baking or decorate them with icing after cooled for holiday, wedding trays, and all decorated for a special event with colorful sprinkles.
If you are looking for a sugary sweet cookie this isn't it, the cookie is lightly sweetened unless you add the frosting and to be honest grandma never frosted them.
The cookies were simply rolled in granulated white sugar and then baked.
