Cucidati - Italian Fig Cookies
These cucidati cookies have a delicious fruit filling wrapped in a buttery cookie with a flourish of lemon frosting and sprinkles on top. It's no wonder these Italian fig cookies are a favorite for Christmas and special occasions.
You might think they sound a little bit like fig Newtons, but the filling here has a much more complex flavor and has a stickier texture. Yes, they take a little more time than a simple slice and bake cookie, but they are definitely worth it (and still easy!)

Diane Anderson, my mother, shares a wonderful recipe for making fig cookies that she learned from her grandmother. We filmed this in her kitchen after a friend of mine requested the recipe; you'll agree that I have one of the best moms in the world!
Note: the batteries ran out on the main camera, so we switched to a smartphone (you'll see a difference in quality and screen size at some point...).
