Sicilian fig cookies (Cucidati) from Ciao Italia - Traditional Italian Recipes From Family Kitchens by Mary Ann Esposito

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I've made these twice. My husband, a chocolate-lover, declared them to be the best cookies I ever made. I add brandy or sweet marsala to the filling. I don't ice the cookies until they cool. I use powdered sugar and orange zest and juice. Sprinkles of course.
