Mulino Bianco Spicchi di Sole cookies are simple Italian shortbread biscuits with the main ingredients being butter and eggs. With their shape resembling croissants, each Spicchi di Sole biscuit boasts decadence of mildly sweet and buttery flavors.
Shortbread cookies originate from 12th century 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).
