Why do I say they are imposters? Because authentic Italian cookie recipes use butter and eggs as primary ingredients. It gives that rich base flavor. These usually go bad within days unless...

Super market cookies were made in an industrial bakery! These bakeries are miles away from your market. The mass impersonal bakeries use wee amounts of butter and eggs in their products to save money. To preserve the wee amount of real butter in those cookies, and the minute amount of eggs - the cookies were pumped with preservatives only a chemistry student can pronounce.

After the giant industrial machines place a colorful wrapper and a deceptive pretty label proclaiming the cookies as "Italian", they sit on the shelves (or a freezer) in the bakery morgue for weeks! Most are pure crap!

We pride ourselves in using the freshest ingredients possible. Which means using these cookie recipes you won't have them sitting around long.

Your cookies will be MUCH tastier and truly authentic with these recipes! You will have a batch of fresh Italian cookies from YOUR kitchen that beat any of the prepackaged grocery store cookies!
