Description
These traditional Italian sweets, known as “Pizzicotti”, are a jewel of artisanal confectionery. Made primarily with premium almond flour, sugar and egg whites, their name comes from the gesture of “pinching” the dough with the fingers to give them their unique shape. The result is a perfect contrast of textures: a slightly crispy and cracked outer layer thanks to the icing sugar, which hides an extremely tender, moist interior with an intense aroma of natural almond. It is a naturally gluten-free dessert, ideal to accompany an espresso coffee or a sweet wine at the end of a meal.
Ingredients
ground almonds (almond flour), granulated sugar, egg whites, a teaspoon of honey, lemon zest or vanilla essence, a few drops of bitter almond essence to enhance the flavor and plenty of icing sugar for the outer coating.
