Pignoli Nut Cookies are a soft Italian macaroon like cookies topped with crunchy pine nuts. Whenever you get a box of Italian pastries, you're sure to find these delicious cookies inside. I got a request for a recipe for these cookies, but they're actual one of my favorites! The recipe is also really simple and they're gluten free too if you use gluten free almond paste.
My mom's good friend Toni Ann requested these cookies and will have a sweet delivery today! If you are local and you request a recipe, once I make them I can deliver them right to your door!
