Italian Breakfast Cookie Mystery
Maybe someone on here can help me figure this out:
When I was little, my Italian (Sicilian) grandmother would always serve these amazingly delicious breakfast cookies. They were long, flat ovals, extremely sweet, very very soft (almost cakelike), and had a sort of vanilla glaze that covered them completely.
Unfortunately, I never asked her what they were called- I think they're a type of biscotti, but they're not hard. I asked my father if he knew what they were, but he just shrugged and answered "breakfast cookies." I've seen them in bakeries a few times, so I know they weren't just something my grandmother made (of course, I never thought to ask the bakers what they were).
Does anyone have any idea what these cookies are called?
