Pignoli Cookies
RECIPE COURTESY OF GIADA DE LAURENTIIS
Level: Easy
Total: 35 min (includes cooling time)
Active: 10 min
Yield: 12 cookies
Ingredients
One 7-ounce tube almond paste
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg white
2/3 cup pine nuts
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Break apart the almond paste in the bowl of a food processor. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, salt and egg white and pulse until smooth. Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of dough directly into the pine nuts and gently roll them in the pine nuts, pressing gently to adhere. (The dough is soft but the pine nuts will help make it easier to handle.)
Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned around the edges and puffed, 16 to 18 minutes. Allow to cool completely on the tray before removing them with an offset spatula.

FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video!

How to Make Italian Almond Cookies with Maraschino Cherries | Sicilian Pastry (ONLY 3 INGREDIENTS)
Italian Almond Cookies with Maraschino Cherries | Sicilian Pastry (ONLY 3 INGREDIENTS)
Here in Sicily, these almond cookies are super popular! I would safely say that almost every pastry shop carries them. It was so much fun to re-create such a traditional sweet that I’ve seen for years in bakery shops since I was a kid.
These almond pastries are super easy to make and you only need 3 main ingredients. They are soft and chewy and a great dessert idea.
RECIPE:
250 g peeled almonds (1 cup + 1/3 cup + 1/3 cup)
150 g powdered sugar (about 1 cup)
2 egg whites
Maraschino cherries (about 15 cherries)
1 g Vanillin or 1 tsp vanilla paste (optional)
Lemon zest to your taste (optional)
