Two cookies in Cosenza, Italy

The shop is called Renzelli 1803, not far from the old city center.

The cookies were quite bad: old and tasteless (at least the ones we had).

Apple and pear filled biscuits - recipe with step-by-step photos

Easy to make and to eat :))

Ingredients for about 20 biscuits:
  • 350 grams of flour
  • 200 grams of butter at room temperature
  • 200 grams of fresh cream
  • 50 grams of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • a bit of vanilla sugar
  • a bit of salt
  • 3 apples
  • 5 pears



Mix the butter with the fresh cream and the vanilla sugar.


Separately mix the flour with the baking powder and then incorporate it slowly into the butter/fresh cream composition.

Make a non sticky dough.

Put it in the fridge to rest while you prepare the filling.

Clean and grate the apples and the pears. Put half of the sugar above them and mix. Let them strain for  a couple of minutes.


Take out the dough from the fridge and divide it in two equal parts.

Spread one part on the table as thin as you can.

Now, in a corner of the dough add the half of the strained filling (apples/pears) and spread above half of the remaining sugar.


Roll the dough and cut it in pieces of 3-4 cm.


Put them in a tray and let them bake in the preheated oven at 200 Celsius degrees for 30 minutes or until done.

Repeat the process with the other part of the dough.


When ready let them cool and then spread some powdered sugar above.


Enjoy!
