We make Biscochitos, a traditional cookie in NM - (Biscochitos are our official State Cookie) ! These are made using Anise seeds and or Anise extract, some ( rum, brandy, or wine ) and lard. Yes, lard. They are eaten year round, but are most popular at Christmas, and other celebrations, like weddings. They are topped off with a cinnamon and sugar dusting. Some add the cinnamon and sugar before baking, others after taking out of the oven. They are heavenly. Traditional Spanish / Mexican influence.
ledzepgirlnmful Mm my favorite! Nobody ever knows what I’m talking about when I try and explain Biscochitos to them! I usually end up saying they are similar to Snickerdoodles just add Anise. Though in reality nothing can compare to Biscochitos.
i made these for xmass best cookies ever and easy to make ,i love all lauras recipes she is the best,im 82 and still like finding new recipes ,i am half italian and love the way she cooks
At first I was thinking that I haven't had these, but as you made the dough I realized that my Nonna does make them, but she doesn't twist them, she just forms them into round cookies. So good.. I can taste them now.
I feel like Italian food and Algerian food are similar, there's so many recipes that we make as "traditional recipes" that you guys have too .so exciting we do have the same cookie recipe for spring baking 😍😘 love you laura
I love watching you cook, Laura! You’re always so fun & still informative. Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipes & tips n tricks for us. Can’t wait to try this recipe.
We make these every year:) My family makes(and shapes/decorates) ours a bit differently but anise cookies are honestly the best. I can never stop eating them 😩❤😍
Buon pomeriggio Laura. Your italian easter cookies (taralli ) looks so beautiful and gorgeous. Mmhhh...Sei bravissima. Ti scrivo da Salerno, anzi Giffoni Valle Piana. Baci Mena😚😚😚
Laura, if anise extract was not available to you, what and especially how much could be used as a substitute? Would Sambuca work instead? Your help would be much appreciated. Buona pasqua! 😊
How much milk do you put in the half batch? There's no mention of milk in the written recipe... And what is "pandegliangeli" or "BP"? That's in the written recipe but not in the video...
Hi Laura, could you make a video featuring pralines? i.e. praline honey butter spread, or praline butter cake, or any dessert featuring making a homemade spread? Thanks!
When your familys version of these cookies takes an entire bottle of anise extract......and the number one complaint is that the flavor doesnt come through enough 😆😆😆😆
Love your channel and you too. Your cookies look amazing will make them for my beautiful granddaughters. Can you Please show us a home made strawberry custard rhubarb pie???? Pretty please with Cherry on top. Lol much love to you and yours. ❤🍓🍒
It’s pupa cu l’ova doll and egg cookie. Sicilians put the boil egg in the middle like a Easter basket or the doll shape with the boil egg. You dont do that so it’s why it makes no sense to u
The full batch make so many could you use the extra dough or the leftover dough for cut-out cookies? Would that was that don't work or different cookies
I have cooked like half of her recipes and I nailed it every time Laura v I love u and your my inspiration love you and god bless your family

I always appreciate "make ahead" directions especially for the big days like Easter, so thanks for the tip about putting them in the fridge overnight!
We love an Italian queen, I could spot a fellow Italian from a mile away❤️❤️Love your videos gal

I had Easter with family early this year; your lemon loaf cake saved the day with dessert!
Basically I should focus on the steps and the recipe. But I just can't help myself replaying the moment you eat it. Love watching you eating
OMG! Laura those cookies look so delicious. Thank you for sharing. Happy Easter to you and your family 🌟💐
Thank you Laura , i started my Easter baking, i will make these aswell ❤❤❤
What do you usually bake at Easter? Here in the UK I make hot cross buns, Simnel cake and Easter biscuits.
I feel like Italian food and Algerian food are similar, there's so many recipes that we make as "traditional recipes" that you guys have too .so exciting we do have the same cookie recipe for spring baking 😍😘 love you laura

loving what papa sal says about eggs and bunnies don't kinda go together so keep them out of his cookie
Those Easter cookies look delicious ! Thanks again !
This recipe looks so quick and yummy! Can't wait to try it!
Laura, This Easter cookies looks delish!
What is the difference between Italian baking powder and the regular baking powder?
Aankita Patel nothing really.
I don't know about the baking powder, but the sprinkles are special. It's really hard to find the proper, super shiny silver ones in the US!
Aankita Patel I am tha trap
Cousin LAURA “that crumb in there!” 😂😂
The kouleria look good.
Yum! My Aunt Martha use to make these, thanks for the memory rush! I will give your recipe a spin:)
Those look gorgeous!
Hi Laura, love your recipes! Can you tell me the brand name of the sprinkles that you use. Maybe I can order them from Italy . Thank you
You're killing me! Now I have to make these.😂
I did enjoy spending time with you and you sure as hell will see me next time.
Anisette cookies, love. Grew up on em
I seen bread with a hard boiled Easter egg baked in the bread with a glaze and sprinkles on it.
can you show the amounts of ingredients for the Easter cookies episode 1243, having problem getting it, thanks.
Laura, if anise extract was not available to you, what and especially how much could be used as a substitute? Would Sambuca work instead? Your help would be much appreciated. Buona pasqua! 😊
Hi Laura makes brownies look so good
I am watching and enjoying but not able to bake like you someday someday.
I can't find a good tool to shave the peels of fruit like you do. What brand do you use?
Great cookies! I agree with Papa Sal 100%!
These look so yummy and fun to make!
How much milk do you put in the half batch? There's no mention of milk in the written recipe... And what is "pandegliangeli" or "BP"? That's in the written recipe but not in the video...
Pan Degli Angeli is a italian brand who sell baking stuff, "BP" stand for Baking Powder.
Gleich21 thanks for clearing that up. Maybe by next Easter I'll know how much milk to use ;)
Looks like 1/4 cup milk
time to bake 😋
I love your recipes, those biscuits look beautiful, but accessible nothing I can't get in England
Looks yummy....Can you substitute the vegetable shortening for another ingredient to make this work?
Amazing thank you so much for sharing ❤️🙏🌹❤️💕
I love Easter and I love cookies 🍪
Looks yum! Can you post a Seafood Boil recipe?
Hi Laura, could you make a video featuring pralines? i.e. praline honey butter spread, or praline butter cake, or any dessert featuring making a homemade spread? Thanks!
Delicious is correct Laura!😋thanks for recipe
I got me a sweet tooth at 10:15 pm!! BLAZE green MEDICINE YA'LL! ! ♧÷♧
When your familys version of these cookies takes an entire bottle of anise extract......and the number one complaint is that the flavor doesnt come through enough 😆😆😆😆
Hi Laura, your videos and recipes are great! I wonder if you could please do one for "Baci di Dama". Thanks.
yummiii...will make these for easter!!! 🐣
So delicious !
Hi Laura! How much of the Italian vanilla and/or how much of the vanilla extract? The written recipe does not list vanilla at all.
Has been waiting for this ever since I you posted on Instagram!
Oh man, these look delicious!!!
Love your channel and you too. Your cookies look amazing will make them for my beautiful granddaughters. Can you
Please show us a home made strawberry custard rhubarb pie???? Pretty please with Cherry on top. Lol much love to you and yours. ❤🍓🍒
now i want cookies ahhh
There is no putting the dough in the frig at any point?
Big hello from Bosnia and Hercegovina love you Laura wach you all time you are the best 👌😙😙👀💋💋💋♥️
It’s pupa cu l’ova doll and egg cookie. Sicilians put the boil egg in the middle like a Easter basket or the doll shape with the boil egg. You dont do that so it’s why it makes no sense to u
Hi Laura, im planing to make these for easter, Will it be ok if i use lard instead of shortning? Please let me know!!!
Laura! I’ve got a request for your next video... Could you please show us how to make lobster truffle Mac and cheese please!
It would be great if you give the exact amount of each ingredient
Laura, do you have a cuccidada (?) recipe? Similar to these but with figs .
Excited to try this recipe but where can I order Italian sprinkles??
The white sprinkles look like the eggs on top
yumilliciously good
Is Star Anise Extract the same as Anise Extract? It's all i can find locally.
you are hilarious! these look amazing!
My mama taught me to use Annisete liquor, instead of extract...the flavor is mellow & real. None of the extract "ick"
joybmassa How much would you use? The same amount? I have never seen Anise extract in my country and am looking for a substitute.
The liquor (alcohol) is cooked off in the baking....
I want to make these but I am moving soon and packed away my standing mixer...you think I could make this dough by hand??
The full batch make so many could you use the extra dough or the leftover dough for cut-out cookies? Would that was that don't work or different cookies
Yes :)
Today's recipe is nice
How about a little chocolate egg when cooled
I'm hungry now.
