Drop Cookie Recipes

The easiest Italian cookie recipes to make


Lisa Gianotti Drop cookie recipes are by far the easiest Italian cookie recipes to make. I'm a big fan of them. Not because I"m lazy. But because I can get things done in one single block of time.

I mean, you prep, mix, bake and clean. You take the batter and literally drop it off the spoon onto the cookie sheet. Unlike batter you have to chill and come back later to shape. I mean I have those recipes on here too.

But most of the the traditional Italian cookie recipes are drop cookie recipes - which make them quick and easy. And they won't taste like everyone elses ( is that a word?) same-ole-same-ole-boring-chocolate-chip-cookie.Why?

Becasue you will have a super sonic secret trick. Ok, not really. I was just reading a lot of internet marketing hype and thought I'd add that in. There is no trick. We use several basic ingredients over and over. And that's what makes them taste distincly Italian. You probably have most of the ingredients in your cupboard now!

What is needed to make Italian cookie recipes?


Italian Cookie Recipes 001
Usually three main things and an optional fourth:

  • REAL BUTTER


  • Nuts


  • Flavorings - anise, almond or rum


  • Liquor - Although we use a liquor often in Italian Dessert Recipes each recipe on this site has substitution suggestions if you don't wish to use the alcohol.




  • So, the good news is most of the main ingredients needed for most Italian dessert recipes are sitting in your cabinet or can be found in a *normal* supermarket. No fancy food shopping needed!

    Memorial Day and Warmer Weather Treats!



    It's finally warming up! In my neck of the woods we had SNOW on May 2nd. Now were on to the warm weather sweet treats!

    I started celebrating by having a Sangria last night. Sangria is so easy to make - and the trick to making it spectacular is - following the super easy procedure. IF you need a brush up see:

    How to Make Sangria

    As for Memorial Day Goodies - I bake the LESS sticky stuff if I have to travel. And something that the kids can grab with their fingers as they cruise by the dessert table and run off to their next game. Cookies and brownies work the best for this!

    The past month, these are my top five most viewed cookie recipes:

    #1 Anisette Cookies

    #2 Italian Wedding Cookie Recipe

    #3 Pizzelle Recipe

    #4 Ricotta Cheese Cookies

    #5 Meringue Cookie Recipe

    Have a fun filled Memorial Day!
