Chocolate Almond Macaroons, Pignoli Nut Cookies, Amaretto Biscotti Sesame Cookies, Almond Crescents, Lemon Drop Cookies, Chocolate Puffs, Florentines, Lady Fingers, Sweet Ravioli Cookies, Christmas Honey Clusters, Angel Wings, Cinnamon Nut Bars, and more.

Growing up in a close-knit, Italian American family, Maria Bruscino Sanchez was surrounded by tradition: food, customs, and celebrations from the “old country” were lovingly observed, and if the original meaning was sometimes hidden beneath the patina of a new culture, the respect and desire to stay connected to the past remained. As an adult, Sanchez turned family tradition into her livelihood, opening Sweet Maria’s bakery in Waterbury, Connecticut, where she re-created the cakes and cookies of her youth–but with a distinctly American twist. With Sweet Maria’s Italian Cookie Tray, Sanchez offers her culinary treasures to an even wider audience; recipes range from drop and molded cookies to filled ones, biscotti and biscuits, taralle and pizelles, and many more. Cookie lovers will find plenty to devour in this compilation of Italian American

Marcato deluxe cookie press. This ideal cookie dough dropper includes 24 accessories for cookie shapes and decorations. It comes with recipes and a complete instruction booklet.

Cuisinart WM-PZ2 Pizzelle Press

Cuisinart WM-PZ2 Pizzelle Press (Brushed Stainless)Crisp, sweet, and decoratively imprinted, pizzelle cookies make a wonderful holiday gift–as does the press itself. To use, simply scoop a spoonful of batter on each round nonstick surface of the press, close and latch the lid, and in only 60 seconds two perfect pizzelle are ready. Roll the warm pizzelle around the included wooden dowel to make cannoli, or shape over an inverted custard cup to make a tiny dessert bowl. Pizzelle harden as they cool, and can be eaten flat like crisp cookies or shaped and filled with chocolate mousse, whipped cream, or fruit. A five-setting switch on the press adjusts the temperature for browning preference, and recipes in the instruction booklet offer variations on flavors. A measuring spoon is included. Red and green lights indicate readiness, and a quick reheat time means three dozen of these four-inch cookies can be cooked in no time. The press measures 9 by 8 by 4 inches, is easily wiped clean, stores upright to save space, and comes with a three-year warranty against defects. –Ann Bieri

• Bakes 2 thin 4-inch pizzelle, ready to eat or roll and fill
• 2 decorative patterns imprint each pizzelle
• Includes measuring spoon and rolling dowel for cannoli
• Locking lid ensures even browning
• Brushed stainless-steel maker stores upright
