Cookies Con Amore #Valentines2021

Baked with care, rich, and irresistible, Cookies con Amore handmade Italian cookies are inspired by old-fashioned recipes that can be traced back five generations. Uniquely Italian, Cookies con Amore cookies contain the best ingredients available and are packed fresh directly from their ovens to your table. We got the Valentine Assortment Basket and of course the cookies are already all gobbled up, and it is not even Valentine's Day, hee hee! They were scrumptious!

The basket included:

Heart Shaped Raspberry Linzers - Gluten-free flour and butter batter combined with fresh lemon peel for brightness and extracts of vanilla and almond for their mellowing qualities. After a light dusting of confectioners sugar, they add a dollop of raspberry jelly for a festive, slightly tart treat that is traditional for any occasion.

Amaretti- Amaretti are delicious, chewy almond macaroons made without flour. They use fresh almonds, almond and macaroon paste, and almond extract to give the amaretti a full and complex almond flavor.

Biscottini - The gluten-free biscotti are made with a special blend of wheat-free flours. They are crumbly and crunchy rather than hard, making them edible without the need to dunk them in coffee.

Chocolate Ricciarelli - A traditional Tuscan wedding cookie that combines orange with almond flavors. Finely ground almonds and whipped egg whites form the base of this cookie. They add sweetened orange peel, fragrant orange zest, and fresh almonds to provide a flavor that lingers lightly on one’s palate.

Nonnine - They use a special gluten-free cake flour to give this traditional and much loved cookie a softness with a touch of crunch. Lemon zest tempers the sweetness of the sugar.

Polentine - Made of corn flour, then rolled with raspberry jam for a crispy and slightly sweet treat. One of the most popular gluten-free delights, this traditional Tuscan recipe is naturally gluten-free because the cookie is made with polenta rather than wheat.

Reginette - gluten-free version of the popular sesame and lemon flavored Regina has a rich, buttery flavor and crunchy texture.

Everything was very yummy, and as I said above, everything was gobbled up fairly quickly! Check it all out at Cookies con Amore on Facebook, as well as Cookies con Amore on Twitter, and Cookies con Amore on Instagram.
