Italian Fig Cookies
This recipe for Italian fig cookies has been handed down through my mother's family for years. My grandmother brought it with her from Italy in the early 1900's. My mom taught me the recipe and now I am the designated person in our family to make these delicious fig cookies. This is a very high honor - so they must be as good as my Grandmothers' cookies! Some people call these homemade fig Newtons. They are a tradition at Christmas and are wonderful with a hot cup of coffee.
