What are amaretti di Saronno cookies?
A beloved Italian delight, amaretti cookies were first created in Saronno. As the story goes, when a Milanese cardinal paid the town a visit, a wife and husband quickly threw together a special confection of sugar, egg whites and crushed apricot kernels. The visiting bishop was so captivated by these tasty treats that he blessed the village and the cookies, which remained a secret recipe for many generations.
