They are sublime even if very sweet.
I often need to dispose of billions of egg whites after making the Panettone over Christmas or Colomba in Easter and making these cookies.
My Uncle Sandro was crazy about these, andeven my mother loves them so much that I avoid bringing them since they are quickly gone in one afternoon.

Tips to ensure the success of the dish:
- Resting them at room temperature for twelve hours is important to make them lose moisture/humidity inside.
- Cookies should not darken too much, so it is better to check them in the oven from time to time. Eight minutes is an indicative time that is valid for my oven.
