Description

Ritornelli cookies by Mulino Bianco are delicious cocoa and almond biscuits made according to an old traditional Italian recipe. Brought to you in a family-size pack, these Italian duo-colored crunchy shortbread cookies make for an exciting treat made for sharing!

Shortbread cookies originated in the 12th century in Scotland where butter was added to bread dough, thus the name “shortbread”. After the introduction of sugar in the UK in the 17th century, shortbread cookies soon became synonymous with sweet flavors that we all know today. One of the biggest consumers of cookies is Italy, a country known for its “cookies for breakfast” culture. Throughout the centuries, they have created some of the most unique biscuit varieties including Baci di Dama (or “lady’s kisses”), Biscotti (or “twice-baked”, also known as Cantuccini), and Amaretti (“amaro”, meaning bitter in reference to almonds they contain).
