- In response to a recent request for recipes for some Italian biscuits/ cookies made with pignoli....here is a collection of a variety of different types that are popular in Italy...I hope they please!!
- Fave dei morti literally means "beans of the dead" and are traditionally eaten in Italy on All Souls Day, November 2.
- Grind nuts, a few at a time, till they have a flour-like consistency. In a bowl, mix the nuts with the sugar, baking pwdr and flour. Stir in the egg whites with a heavy spoon, mixing till dough sticks together.
- Shape in tsp. sized balls and flatten slightly on a greased baking sheet; don't allow cookies to touch. With a tsp. handle, press in one edge of the cooky round to make a bean-like indentation. Bake in a 375F oven for 10 to 12 min or possibly till pale brown. Cold on wire racks; store airtight.
- Makes about 5.5 dozen.
