Hazelnut baci di dama are little gems of Italian pastry, fragrant and filled with a gianduia chocolate heart that wins you over at the first bite! Two small cookies made with hazelnut flour come together thanks to a layer of chocolate, creating a rich and delicate pairing. And the most surprising part? To make a full 22 of them, all you need is one egg! A sweet temptation to offer friends, serve with coffee, or give as a gift in pretty packaging.

Apple and ricotta fritters are little golden bites with a soft center, enriched with plenty of diced apple! The ricotta makes the batter soft, while the honey and lemon and orange zest add delicate sweetness and an inviting aroma. The final touch is a coating of sugar while they are still warm. Try serving them hot for a snack to share with the family: one leads to another!

Nutellotti are little soft cookies that capture all the flavor of Nutella in a double taste of chocolate and hazelnuts! What makes them special? They are made with just 3 ingredients, including only one egg, and have a hollow in the center that holds a dollop of Nutella, finished with chopped hazelnuts. A small delight to enjoy with afternoon tea or to offer friends, especially when you feel like making something sweet without making life complicated!
