Recipe Summary Uncle Frank's Italian "S" Cookies

This cookie has been a tradition for several generations in my Sicilian family. Our Uncle Frank always made them for us. They are thought to be a Christmas cookie, but he would make them all year long. Sometimes instead of sprinkles he would top them with sesame seeds.

Ingredients | Simple S Mehndi Design Tattoo

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 cup white sugar, or more to taste

1 cup shortening (such as Crisco®)

¼ cup milk

3 large eggs

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 tablespoon almond extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Mix flour, sugar, shortening, milk, eggs, baking powder, and almond extract in a bowl by hand until smooth.

Form dough into a 1-inch thick log. Cut small portions and roll into 3-inch long pieces, then shape into "S" shapes. Place on the prepared cookie sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

You can use vanilla extract for almond extract, and 4 small eggs instead of 3 large eggs. 3 large or 4 small eggs

Make an optional frosting by mixing confectioners' sugar and milk, as needed, until smooth. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Frost top of cookie and, if desired, sprinkle with decoration sprinkles. Let air dry and enjoy.
