    Many thanks to my mom for helping bring this holiday recipe for “Mom’s Italian Ribbon Christmas Cookies” to see the light of Christmas day. Throw a log on the fire, turn on the Christmas music and pour yourself a glass of egg nog. This is going to be a new Christmas tradition recipe in your family. And this is not a quick and easy recipe. This is a recipe is a great excuse to spend the day with the family, enjoying each other and getting in the spirit. If you want to make a smaller batch, cut everything in half. (they are also called Cicerchiata, Struffoli, Frappe or Cioffe but they're all versions of a Fried Sweetened Dough).
    My mother has been making this recipe forever but none of us ever took the opportunity to watch the whole process from start to finish. And, honestly, you would have to be a pretty skilled mind reader to decipher her recipe card and make these cookies without her by your side. My mom’s a great cook and a great baker, so she’s done most of her cooking and baking by pinching, eye-ing and guessing food into existence, without much measuring if any. Somehow, it always works. For the sake of everyone else in our family and for the rest of the world, John and I spent a full Sunday with my Mom and Dad and transcribed the entire recipe in writing, pictures and (coming soon) video.
    Ingredients for Cookies:
    2 pounds flour (buy in 2 pound bag) or 6 and 2/3 cups
    ½ cup sugar
    ½ cup canola oil
    canola oil for frying (check this)
    8 large eggs
    3 and ½ tablespoons baking powder
    1 tsp. salt
    Ingredients to Drizzle After Cooking
    2-3 cups honey
    Powdered sugar shaker

      +CookingwithSugarTV I actually just found your channel today and was looking at a cheesecake recipe you did a couple years back or so. I don't know if you've done one before but I'd like to see you do a chreesecake I tried once and liked but don't know how to make it. I believe it was a pistachio cheescake? The cheesecake comes out green and I'm not sure but I think they use either pistachio powder or some sort of a pistachio paste maybe to give it it's flavor and color (just a guess here I'm not even sure as I didn't ask at the time).
      I'm not sure if it's standard but I think instead of a fruit topping it also had a nut topping. Maybe sliced almonds or pecan halves? I'm going off a memory of many years ago when I tried it once so I'm not exactly sure. I don't know if it's just a standard cheesecake recipe where they just add the pistachio stuff to it or if the entire recipe is significantly different when making that kind of cheesecake. But that would be cool to see how it's made and is a bit unorthodox from the standard cheesecake where only the toppings usually vary. It would be cool for people who have done a lot of standard cheesecakes to and are looking for something different or unique to try with it.
