ITALIAN CHOCOLATE SPICE COOKIES
I recently found this old family recipe in my mom's kitchen. I made a few adjustments to streamline the process, and the cookies turned out wonderfully. -Shawn Barto, Winter Garden, Florida

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Into the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade, pulse the almonds and sugar until the almonds are finely ground. Add the orange zest, flour cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, and cloves and pulse several times to mix. Cut the butter into 12 pieces and add to the work bowl. Pulse until the butter is mixed in (about 20-25 times).
- Ad the eggs and wine; pulse until the dough is evenly moistened, tough it probably will form one ball. Allow to stand for 1 minute to absorb the liquid, then refrigerate for 30 minutes. *I could not fit all the ingredients in my food processor. See recipe note above.
- Scrape the dough onto an oiled work surface and roll into a log, 12 inches long. Cut the log into six pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a 12-inch cylinder, flatten slightly the palm of your hand, then cut each 12-inch cylinder diagonally into ten or eleven pieces and place the pieces on pans about 1 inch apart. Place the pans in the oven and immediately lower the temperature to 300 degrees. Bake the cookies about 10-14 minutes, or until firm and light golden.
- Icing:
- Whisk the confectioners' sugar with the water and orange juice. Add the water a little at a time. If it is too thick, add a little more water a tablespoon at a time.
- Transfer the cookies to a rack and drizzle on the icing. I did two coats of the icing drizzle. The original recipe says to dunk the cookies in the icing. I wanted to see a little bit of the cookie color. Add some sprinkles.

- Dip cookies into icing and sprinkle with trim. Place on wire rack with wax paper on counter to collect the dripping icing and sprinkles.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl sift together all-purpose flour; sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder; cinnamon; cloves; nutmeg; baking powder and a pinch of salt.
- Add cubed butter (at room temperature) and use your fingers, a pastry cutter or even your electric mixer, if you prefer, to cut the butter into the flour.
- Make a well in the center of the mixture and add a beaten egg, stir into the flour. Stir in the milk and shape into a dough. Add extra milk, if necessary, to ensure that the dough holds together. The dough will be quite firm and slightly sticky. At this point, I prefer using my hands to gather the dough together and shape it into a ball.
