So yesterday I made a batch of the Lemony Semolina Cookies from Dolce Italiano. I wasn't sure about the semolina as far as the consistency in your mouth, but I had some on hand (left over from a batch of arborio rice coating we made in August), so I wanted to use it up. Also wasn't sure about the addition of limoncello into the cookie dough - but both of these reservations were unfounded. Another winner - even Sammi approves. Oh and they weren't overtly lemony just enough - great with a cup of tea or coffee as an afternoon snack. Heck, they even went well with my glass of milk before bed.
Oh and Weight Watchers wise - these are great at only 1 point a piece!
I haven't decided what's next but I'm leaning towards the hazelnut cookies.

You're killin' me! I love citrus flavored anything ... these cookies sound great.
"Dolce Italiano" definitely goes on my list for 'first paycheck with the new company' treats!'

Surfed in randomly while googling to see if anyone had tried out this recipe yet.
I'm really pleased to see that they turned out so gorgeously well. Hopefully they'll go down well with my guests tomorrow!

Angela, I hope you like them. This reminds me though, I need to go back to the book and start baking again.

We all loved them, especially the kids. So far everything I've made from Dolce Italiano has been fantastically good.

Glad you liked them. What else have you made besides these and the Venetian Apple cake?

I haven't made anything else... yet. I'm contemplating making the Bonet for my birthday in lieu of a cake, though!
