Susamielli
Susamielli are Neapolitan Christmas cookies shaped like loose S curves and scented with honey, almonds, and warm spices. They bake firm and glossy rather than soft, making them ideal beside coffee, dessert wine, or a holiday cookie tray.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dessert)
Warm the honey just until fluid, then stir it with sugar and orange zest.
Combine flour, almonds, spices, baking ammonia or baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Mix the honey into the dry ingredients to make a firm fragrant dough.
Roll pieces into ropes and shape each into a loose S on a parchment-lined tray.
Bake until set and lightly browned, then cool completely so the cookies firm up.
