    This is a Christmas staple on our table. I remember making these with my great-grandmother. Love adding the nuts & fruit. Will try this variation for Easter.

    You folks with Italian heritage are so lucky, my mom wasn’t Italian and she also could barely cook. Italian dishes are among my faves, and it’s easy to convert a lot of it to vegetarian!

    Thanks for the time saver! I've been making these for decades, since I was old enough to see over the kitchen counter. I used to joke with my mom that the only reason she had kids was to have help with rolling out the struffoli. 😉 It's not Christmas without them though!

    Christmas in March!! My mother made these when I was a kid. Christmas wasn't the same without them. I made them for my wife and I but she only ate a tiny few, looking out for her sweets intake.... I ended up downing the bulk. The are adorable!

    Geez this brought back soo much! Every year (and I'm going back to the 50's) we made this a week before Christmas and we made a lot! The next day i would go with my Father and take them around to family and friends through out North Jersey. One of my most cherished memories. Thanks.

    When I made them as presents, I molded them individually in mini Bundt pans that have been greased with butter. It would probably work just the same with cupcake pans, though I’d think about using lubricated muffin paper cups.

    It doesn’t seem like having a donut. It’s like the crunchy hollow ends on a funnel cake, but sticky like a sticky bun. The fun eating experience is similar picking at a bowl of peanuts.

    What’s not been said here is that the honey acts as a preservative, so the dish can be kept for days and days over the holidays, often popped out when company comes, then tucked away again until the next gathering.

    I have never made or eaten these, so this is a question for those that have. Would a veggie chopper, that has the removable die cut work ; If you cut the main dough into 10 pieces instead of 6? The die cut chops into 36 pieces at a time.

    They also call a single tamal a tamale when it’s singular tamal, plural tamales, and they mispronounce the plural. And I wrote to them about their taste map of the tongue, which was very wrong right from the start when it was created back then, and I even shared the history of how that dubious tongue map came about. They make mistakes, they’re human. The lesson is to take away is to take anything any authority says with a grain of salt, and when you’re cooking, make it your own way.
