Virciddrati Edited by Sonia Mancuso
The “virciddrati� cookies are typical of Sicily, in the Nisseno area precisely. They are very common and every family prepares them in large amount for Christmas and Easter. They are soft cookies rolled around a filling that uses local products: almonds and figs (we will use in this gluten-free recipe only almonds as dried figs usually are coated with flour to prevent from sticking to each other and for the celiac disease are not recommended).These decorated cookies are long lasting and easy to make.
