Crisp, crunchy little Italian "biscuit" cookies are traditional to Saronno. Made with almonds, egg whites, crushed apricot kernels and natural flavorings, there is none better with a fine port or dessert wine, liqueur or a fragrant cup of coffee.
Traditional to Saronno, Italy, these cookies are an amaretto (almond-flavored) variety of France's macarons. When fresh out of the oven and eaten the day they're made with a slight crunch. No matter when you choose to eat them, they're a delightful treat served alongside a morning or afternoon espresso, or cup of frothy cappuccino or latte.
