Amaretto Recipes

STOP Frantically Clicking - Here is you list!






amaretto recipes Amaretto recipes is a collection of Italian Dessert Recipes which I have made for years. Some recipes were passed to me from my grandma, and others well, are my own concoctions. This collection ranges from Italian drinks to Italian cakes. The thing they have in common is amaretto. This is basically recipe search by ingredient page dedicated to...... amaretto.

When you hear amaretto most people think of Italian Drinks because it's a popular Italian liqueur - but it's not only for drinking!

We use it in drinks, cakes, Italian cookie recipes and tart recipes.

I will have to say amaretto isn't like buying a $15.00 bottle of wine. Expect to pay around $35.00 (USD) for a bottle (minimum). But don't let that be a show stopper. Heck, when you go out don't you spend a lot more than that for your bar tab?! This is a bottle with a heck of a lot of amaretto recipes to use it in. ( If you don't drink it up)

Lazzaroni Amaretto and Disaronno are the two main Italian brands we use. And contrary to popular thought - there are no almonds in amaretto. Both of these brands kinda feud with each other. I've always been partial to DiSaronno just because that is what I grew up.

There are some posers like Bols, DeKuyper, Hiram Walker, Luxardo, and Phillips. But for the most part those of us true to our heritage use the big-Italian-two.

If you don't see what want check out my home page Italian Dessert Recipes. I have over 190 recipes and photos of my desserts and drinks I have made for years.

Thank you for stopping by!
