These cookies are usually round and has a spice in it I cannot figure out. They usually are baked at xmas time. I have found them in Italian stores but they're not as good as homemade. My mother-in-law use to make them but for some reason no one will give me the recipe. Is there anyone out there that is willing to share and knows what I'm talking about. I really miss the taste of this cookie. Thanks to anyone who responds and is very much appreciated by me.
