Sugar Savvy

I am not a big cookie eater.  Cookie baker, yes, but then I give them away.  The cookies I have been known to grab handfuls of are mostly Italian, like biscotti, amaretti cookies, and ladyfingers.  When the chefs gave us a ladyfinger recipe in class years ago, I was so excited and made them several times. Their light and airy texture blinded me into blissful binges. 

While I am confident it will turn up when I finally get to my summer clean-up, I sadly realized the other day that I have misplaced that recipe.  But, I was prepping to make a Tiramisu.  What to do …. what to do.  Then I thought, Alessi!  Vigo and Alessi’s Italian products are wonderful for bringing a little bit of Italy into an American home. 

Thank goodness Publix carries Alessi’s Biscotti Savoiardi, also known as ladyfingers.  The cookies made my Tiramisu delicious!
