Giada has revised her recipe for Lemon Ricotta Cookies....trying them this week

Oh let us know! I made them previously and was disappointed

The batter was super delicious so I really thought they’d be fantastic and they ended up being something I wouldn’t make again. So, I’m looking forward to your review!

 
I have a friend in Italy, and he shared his Nonne's lemon filled cookie recipe with me

In case you would like to give it a shot. His photos were the bomb. Sort of like a fat oval ravioli.

I tried translating it using Google, it's not bad but I left it as is because I thought some of the translations were funny. Original Italian is included just in case anyone is fluent enough to help translate?

BISCOTTI CON CREMA AL LIMONE:

400g di farina bianca "00"
120g di zucchero a velo
160g di burro
2 tuorli d'uovo
1 limone non trattato per la farcitura
250ml di latte
3 tuorli
70g di zucchero di canna
20g di fecola di patate (potato starch)
20g di farina bianca "00"
2 limoni non trattati

Unite alla farina setacciata lo zucchero a velo, il burro freddo a pezzetti, i tuorli e la scorza del limone grattugiata e lavorate fino ad ottenere un impasto omogeneo.
se dovesse risultare troppo granuloso, aggiungere 1 cucchiaio d'acqua fredda. Formate una palla, avvolgetela nella pellicola trasparente e fatela riposare in frigorifero per 30 minuti.
Intiepidite il latte, unitevi la scorza del limone grattugiata e lasciate in infusione per 10-15 minuti. Sbattete i tuorli con lo zucchero di canna fino a quando risulteranno gonfi e spumosi. Aggiungete la farina, la fecola e continuate a sbattere fino a ottenere una crema liscia. Versate il latte tiepido a filo, amalgamate e travasate in un pentolino. Cuocete mescolando con una frusta fino a quando la crema inizierà ad addensarsi. Lasciatela raffreddare.
Stendete la frolla a uno spessore di circa 2mm e con uno stampo da 6cm di diametro ricavate dei dischi.
Distribuite 1 cucchiaino di crema al centro di metà dei dischi, sovrapponete i restanti e premete i bordi in modo da sigillare il tutto.
Disponete i biscotti su una teglia ricoperta con carta da forno e cuoceteli a 180°C per circa 15 minuti o fino a quando inizieranno a dorarsi.
