ITALIAN CHRISTMAS SPICE COOKIES
While growing up in Boston, every Christmas my Neopolitan auntie would make a delicious chocolate round cookie spiced with cloves. She called them "Todors" (phonetic spelling). It's been 50 years since I've had them as no bakery seems to make them. Finally, after much research, I was able to locate a recipe that sounded just like the real thing. I tweaked the recipe a bit till I got the taste that I remembered. Warning: You can't each just one.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa, cloves, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg.
- In a large separate bowl mix together eggs, sugar, oil, milk and vanilla.
- Add flour mixture to wet mixture in small batches and mix until combined.
- Add chocolate chips and chopped almonds. Dough will be very stiff.
- With lightly oiled hands, continue to mix the dough till all ingredients are incorporated. Wash hands thoroughly.

- Arrange on prepared baking sheet 2" apart and bake for 10 minutes.
- Once cooled, dip the top of each cookie into the chocolate glaze. While still wet garnish tops with a few sliced almonds.
- When set, re-dip the bottom of each cookie back into the chocolate glaze and let set again.
- While still slightly wet, generously dust or roll each cookie into 1 cup powdered sugar.
- Set aside to dry before stacking.
- Cookies will keep in an airtight container for 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Soak the currants in the brandy for 10 minutes. Mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, spices, salt, and dark chocolate. Mix well with a whisk.
- Put the butter, sugar, vanilla, and lemon and orange zest in a stand mixer fitted with the beater attachment and beat to combine but not aerate much, about 1 minute. With the mixer running, slowly add the egg and mix for about 1 minute. Add the dry ingredients, followed by the currants and brandy. Mix until everything comes together.
- Gently knead the dough in the bowl with your hands until it comes together and is uniform. Divide the dough into 1 3/4-oz / 50g chunks and shape each chunk into a perfectly round ball. Place the balls on 1 or 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 3/4 inch / 2 cm apart, and let rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F / 190°C. Bake the cookies for 15 to 20 minutes, until the top firms up but the center is still slightly soft. Remove from the oven. Once the cookies are out of the oven, allow to cool for only 5 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack. While the cookies are still warm, whisk together the glaze ingredients until a thin and smooth icing forms. Pour 1 tablespoon of the glaze over each biscuit, leaving it to drip and coat the biscuit with a very thin, almost transparent film. Finish each with 3 pieces of candied peel placed at the center. Leave to set and serve, or store in an airtight container for a day or two.

- In a medium bowl stir together 1/4 teaspoon of the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and allspice. Add dough and stir to combine. Working between sheets of parchment paper or waxed paper, roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thickness. Slide onto a cookie sheet and freeze at least 1 hour or chill at least 3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper; set aside. In a small bowl combine the white sanding sugar, raw sugar, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Peel the paper from the top of the dough. Use a 2-inch round cutter to cut circles from dough (if dough is too firm, let stand a few minutes before cutting). Arrange 1 1/2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Gather scraps, roll, and chill as above. Sprinkle tops of cutouts with sugar-cinnamon mixture.
- Bake for 14 to 16 minutes or until golden around the edges and on the bottom. Cool on cookie sheets for 5 minutes. Remove and cool on wire racks.
