Description
Chiacchiere Baresi... so crispy! When you start eating them... one leads to the other! These are also known as Bow Tie cookies, Frappe, Crostoli, Twist Cookies, e-Wand and many other names.
Ingredients

  • 1 Lb Flour
  • 6 Oz White wine
  • 4 Oz Olive oil
  • 1/4 Lb Sugar
  • Powdered sugar
  • Olive oil for frying
Directions/Steps
  1. In a stand mixer, first mix the oil, wine and sugar.  Make sure that the sugar is all dissolved.
  2. Add the flour and mix well until you have a ball of dough. Let it rest for about 20 mins.
  3. Cut a piece of dough and if you have a stand mixer Pasta Roller attachment, use it to flatten the dough. Pass it thru the Pasta Roller several times until the sheet of dough is very smooth.  The suggested final setting for the tickness is #3.
