These Olive Oil and Wine Cookies are kind of a cousin to the Canistrelli we made a few weeks ago. They hail from the south of France, where olive oil is more widely used than butter. I used a sweet white wine in the dough that was actually homemade by someone I know…please don’t tell, but it’s better to bake with than it is to drink…haha. I don’t think I got the dough shaping down here. They are supposed to have chubby middles and tapered, pinched ends but mine look a little wonky. No matter, they baked up crunchy and made good coffee dunking treats anyway (although TBH, I liked the Canistrelli a bit better for their anise flavor).

These are good for dunking in espresso, aren’t they?

I liked these and the canistrelli – I did find them very similar.

These were hard to shape!! Yours look great…but what I really noticed was how orange your cantaloupe is…wow! Looks way more flavorful than the ones we have here haha!

Homemade wine a nice touch. Wonky cookies are a good thing. I also liked the other ones better:)
