Bersaglieri

Bersaglieri are traditional Sicilian cookies originating from Catania. The cookies are usually made with a combination of flour, cocoa, eggs, milk, lard, sugar, bakers' ammonia, vanilla, and salt. The flour is mixed with salt, ammonia, vanilla, lard, cocoa, sugar, and eggs.

The dough is shaped into a ball and left to rest in the fridge. Small amounts of the dough are shaped into small loaves or finger shapes that are baked in the oven. Once cooled to room temperature, the cookies are glazed with a mixture of water, cocoa, and sugar.

Once the glaze dries, bersaglieri are ready to be enjoyed. These cookies were named after Italian infantry corps, and they're popular around Halloween.
