Easter Recipes: Italian Sprinkle Cookies – Taralli

Delicious and Colorful Taralli Cookies

Delicious and Colorful Taralli Cookies

It’s almost time for the Easter bunny to pay a visit and that means it is time to do some Easter baking. Forget about the ham, it’s all about making taralli cookies. I always post this recipe at Easter and Christmas time, that is when our family typically makes these very special cookies. They are so yummy with a hot cup of tea or coffee, or an ice cold glass of milk. Be sure to leave a plate of them out for the Easter bunny, along with some carrots of course!

Click on the Recipe Rescue tab to view this recipe. Have you ever had Taralli’s before? Sometimes they are made with anise or lemon extract instead of vanilla, either added to the cookie or the glaze.

Homemade Pizza

Have you ever used Pillsbury Hot Roll Mix to make pizza?  It works great and it’s so easy, you’ll forget the number of your favorite pizza place!  Well, maybe you’ll just call it a little less often (I still remember the phone # of the pizza place we called when I was a teenager!).  You can find the mix in the bakery section of your supermarket – near the flour.  Here’s some pictures to get you started, then click on the Dinner 911 page for the recipe.  Post a comment if you try it – Enjoy!  *Note: The Dinner 911 page has been updated with a new recipe at this time.

Not Just for Hot Rolls!
