I have discovered a new cookie recipe, and liked it enough to want to share the recipe. I don’t usually like soft puffy cookies, but I really like these.

Here is the original recipe with detailed instructions over at Serious Eats: Fiori di Sicilia Cookies Recipe.

My version, slightly different and in metric.

Recipe Notes: 

• Doubles well.
• Fiori di Sicilia: this brand has the best flavor I’ve found so far but in Canada it may be easier to find this version.
• Lemon oil: I like this brand but whichever you choose, look for an oil without added water or alcohol.
• I also broke down and bought a big pack of pre-cut parchment paper sheets. These were pricer than the industrial sized-rolls from Costco (there are also cheaper pre-cut options), but the increase in my parchment-related happiness was very much worth it.

Reviews: 

• “Omg these are the best!!” (Mr Man)
• “You have crafted a cookie that managed to defeat COVID!“ (friend on the mend, happily!)
