Each holiday has it’s special flavors and textures. One of the special treats we prepare for Pesah is “masa di vino”, a wine cookie with a delightful and unique taste and texture. They are easy to make and freeze well. Give them a try!
Ingredients:
1 C oil
3/4 C sweet wine
3/4 C sugar
1 egg
2 C Passover cake meal
1 C chopped nuts (optional)
1/2 C Passover potato starch
Mix sugar, oil and wine well. Add egg and dry ingredients.
Take walnut sized pieces of dough. Roll into a ball. Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Flatten by hand. With tines of a fork, press each cookie to produce a design.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Enjoy!

Dear Bendichos,
Do you use red or white wine for the masa di vino cookies? I think my grandma did white.
The ashuplados look amazing.

These don’t form balls dough is way too wet. Will have to add ground almonds until dough consistency is formed

Oh. Instructions should note to let the dough rest a bit. If firms up once the starch and matzah absorbs the liquid. Happy I only put 1/3 c almond flour in

My favorite cookie at Passover. Has anyone tried making them gluten free? Is gluten free cake flour available?

I used Almond flour since there was no cake flour for Passover available. However, I did have to double the amount of flour
