    This brought me to tears. I just lost my momma and I remember her making this Christmas and Easter every year. Miss her so much 💜

    I just made a batch yesterday for Christmas! My grandma’s recipe is 2 eggs for every cup of flour. That’s it. I started adding a little vanilla, orange zest, couple of tablespoons of sugar and a little cinnamon (everything by eye). I make my dough on my dad’s board (pasta, bread, whatever, it’s probably more than 60 yrs old) just like pasta dough, we’ll of flour, liquids in the middle mix all by hand. Old, old school like my grandma (I’m 70!) so you can figure how old. I also add chopped chocolate and chopped almonds with the honey, fantastic! Merry Christmas!

    Ms Caroline! I think that you underestimate how loved and missed by your fans you are!! Of course they would invite you to Bravocon!! You were one of the OG NJ housewives but quite possibly the only sane HW on Bravo lol. I obviously watched the show when it was on originally but some of the things you said and wrote in your book stuck with me and I am grateful for you and your wisdom. You always put your family first and that’s how I live my life. Have a wonderful and safe Christmas holiday and enjoy every second of it xoxo

    Dearest Caroline just love watching you. You are just so real and so funny. Could watch you and your family for hours. By the way the recipes are good too. Hope you have the happiest of holidays. I know you will enjoy your granddaughter. Grandchildren are the best. I have 5 and they are my joy.

    Caroline Laurita Manzo, you are doing awesome work as an entrepreneur, cook, author, family woman. You inspire many women and men, myself included. I think adopting some of your philosophy into one's own life can carry them a long way.
    By the way, this delicacy looks great. I've seen you and your brother Jaime make this before. I think I will try it next Christmas.

    This brought back memories. We use to make something similar with my grandma at Christmas callled pingulata. Dough balls honey chocolate chips and almonds. The whole family would get together and roll the dough and cut ( it has to be the correct size or grandma would make us do it all over again) well wishes to you and your family. God bless❤

    Okay I know all Italians call this Christmas dessert by different names and have different techniques. Your recipe seems wonderful too, but trust me, you're missing a CRUCIAL step by not adding at least a half cup of sugar in to boil with the honey before you coat them. The honey sticks to them 1,000 x better and you're not left fishing around for all the honey that sinks to the bottom of the dish.
    Buon Natale!!!!
