- Buon Giorno A Tutti! In this episode, Nonna Mia, la nonna di tutti (everyone's grandmother), shows us how to make her super cute Easter cookies that look like little bird nests. These are easy to whip up and a favourite with young and old, so do give them a try!
Nonna makes these as a hazelnut-based cookie, but if you prefer another nut, by all means, substitute as desired. You could use Amaretto in lieu of Frangelico and almonds in lieu of hazelnuts, for example. Either way, the flavour is enhanced if you roast the nuts first.
Here are the ingredients you will need:
- 1 cup of butter, softened / 227 grams
- 1 cup of sugar / 200 grams
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups of all-purpose flour / 360 grams
- a pinch of salt
- a teaspoon of Frangelico, or substitute with vanilla (5 mL)
- 3 cups of chopped hazelnuts,
1 cup for the dough, and 2 cups for rolling
1 cup of chopped nuts is about 125 grams
- 2 egg whites, beaten to dip the dough in before rolling in nuts
- 60 mini eggs (Cadbury is used here)
In a standing or electric mixer, cream butter and sugar for a few minutes. Then add 2 eggs, a pinch of salt, 1 cup of chopped hazelnuts, and slowly add in 3 cups of all-purpose flour. Last, add a teaspoon of Frangelico hazelnut liqueur. Then test the dough to ensure that it rolls well and holds together.
Prepare two small bowls for rolling - the first with 2 beaten egg whites and the 2nd with 2 cups of chopped hazelnuts.
Roll the dough into one-inch balls, dip in egg white, then roll in the nuts and repeat. This recipe made 60 cookies. Press in a mini Easter egg (Cadbury) to the middle of each 'nest' and place on a parchment-lined baking tray.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375 F for 15 minutes, cool, and enjoy!
