Unfortunately, I lost my Nonna’s recipe for these divine cookies. Fortunately, she must have put you in my vision. These seem to be just like the ones we made together years ago. Not only are your cookies perfection, but you have the most soothing relaxing voice! I can’t wait to start making these little treasures. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Your comment brought tears to my eyes. I know what it feels like to rediscover a beloved family recipe that you feared was lost forever. I'm glad you find my voice soothing...not sure my husband would agree with you. LOL. I hope you'll make these cookies with any little ones in your life and keep the tradition going. Wishing you a very happy holiday season. And thank you for taking the time out to write. It means a lot to me.

Omgoodness..this cookie was a memory..my Mom learned from her Italian mother in law (Nana) many recipes..this was my favorite....the only difference was she made orange, not lemon 😂..thank you..I thought I'd never see this recipe..her cookbook was lost ..I'm 70 now and you made this Nana VERY happy 😊 New subbie 😊

I have searched for these cookies for almost 20 yrs. Mrs Di Angelus made these cookies for my mum every Easter and Christmas. I’ve never tasted anything like them. I’ve been promising my son I’d find the recipe and here you are! Thank thank you ❤❤❤

Truth be told, if you add the sprinkles right away, before the glaze sets at all, they will soften a little. But I want nothing between me and my cookie! 😎

My family had the same "first name basis for this cookie too" lol - I was 40 when I learned the real name. I also totally agree with the non-peril crunch issue. I switched to sprinkles for the little kids and even added food coloring once for the kids. For all of us adults we stuck with just glaze. You are a great teacher. Thank you for the recipe and the time you took to do this. God bless you and your family. 🍋❤

I just made this fantastic Anginetti Italian Lemon 🍋cookie recipe. They are amazing ! I ❤the luscious 🍋 flavor . I followed your video and they turned out perfect . You were spot on , the flavor is mainly from the zest of the lemon in the glazing. I sat down and had a ☕️and enjoyed my cookie . My family will ❤ these . I would have sent a picture but I couldn’t figure out how to send my photo . I need one of my grandkids to help me out since I’m semi- techie . They’re pros @ ages 9 & 13 .

My Father would have been proud . 2 cookies w his favorite flavs. I actually used a couple of clementines ( or cuties ) I think a blood 🍊would have made the flavor more intense , can’t get enuf of those . When we would bake when I was a kid there was a lot of Almond & Anise in our Christmas baking. It was quite an event . I still ❤it . There’s nothing like homemade , & made w lots of ❤.

Anita, once you bake these cookies, how long can you store them in an airtight container? Do they need to be refrigerated or can I leave them at room temperature? They look amazing. I can’t wait to try them.

@AtHomewithAnitaRosner

They don’t need to be refrigerated and actually taste better the next day (they get denser). Cookies can probably be stored at least a week (mine are usually consumed before then). ☺️

Thanks for writing in. You could definitely use more zest. If you want to add some actual juice to the dough, that's ok too, as long as the dough doesn't get sticky and goopy. So maybe not more than a tablespoon. Let me know how they come out!

Hmmm...What do you think of ricotta in these cookies? I’ve seen many recipes that include it. I tried a version with it and they were good. But, the texture wasn’t as good at the ones my grandpa used to get from an Italian bakery.

Adding ricotta is an interesting idea. I think I would reduce the butter by half and add half a cup of ricotta. Not sure about this, since I haven't tested it. But if you do, please let m,e know how they came out!

Would this be the same recipe but only using anise extract instead of the lemon rind? My Mom and cousin used to make them and wondering if I could use this recipe but use 2 tsps of anise extract.

Should the cookie dough be chilled prior to baking? I chill my dough to prevent the cookies from spreading.

You certainly can if you want to. But it’s not necessary.

Anita, do you ever have an issue with non perils “bleeding” into the confection sugar icing?? I do the same icing for my Italian Knot cookies, and several hours after dipping the top, and adding non perils, they always seem to bleed! I have not found out why this happens. I make the icing same consistency as you do for these delicious lemon cookies. Any suggestions??

@AtHomewithAnitaRosner

Жыл бұрын

Yes, they will “bleed”. I don’t really see a way around this if they sit for more than a day. But you could get creative and sprinkle the non-perils on first then quickly put the icing on top. Then you’ll get sort of a watercolor effect with just a hint that non-perils are under there. Or, perhaps let the icing set a little and then press the non-perils onto the cookies. But honestly, once people taste them, they won’t care either way 😉

Hi Kalie. Thanks for writing. The most common reason these cookies come out dry is too much flour. To make sure you're measuring properly, here's my quick video on the subject. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y2mgxNyglKjHoNY.html. Also note, these are denser and actually better (I think) on the day AFTER you bake them. Hope this helps!
