Egg-free adaptation: I substitute 1 tsp of arrowroot powder and 2 Tbsp of water for each egg; therefore, use a total of 2 tsps of arrowroot powder and 4 Tbsp of water. Simply add in the arrowroot powder, followed by the water, at the step where you'd add in eggs. They turn out fine! The dough may be slightly harder to get all combined if you mix by hand. I just knead it together with my hands until it is all blended. Cookies come our fluffy and delicious!

Really good - don't overbake. Loved the hint of almond flavor. Thought the texture of these cookies was superb. I halved the recipe as I didn't need that many!

I've never had ricotta cookies before but I needed to use up some left over ricotta cheese so I thought I'd give these a try. Well, to say everyone liked them would be an understatement. They barely lasted a day and a half! They are delicious, melt in your mouth little cookies. Next time I may add just a little less milk to the icing to thicken it up a bit, but other than that they are great!

More than 5 stars! These are delicious and moist. Very much like the traditional Italian cookies that I grew up on and make. But these are more moist. I used Anise extract on some and lemon extract on the rest. Love these!! Cant wait to give some to my parents tomorrow!

My mom was looking for a recipe for these cookies, so I made them for her, and she loved them! My 8 year old nephew is always asking if I made these cookies when he comes over. They are delicious. I've been making them without the glaze, and they are still great. I store mine in the fridge in an air-tight container.

Great recipe! The cookies came out fabulous, but I did have trouble with the icing. I'd suggest adding a little less milk to the icing ingredients so it will end up a little thicker.

I'm not sure whether to give these a 3 1/2 * or 4 *. I wasn't that thrilled with them but the family seemed to like them. Hubby described the texture as a vanilla cupcake. He's exactly right. These are like cupcake cookies. Something different which did use up my left over ricotta, but I wouldn't go out of my way to make again. Thankyou.

Very yummy...couldn't stop eating them. A huge favorite. My only issue was storing them as they were so moist that the icing never really dried on them. Single layer them and lightly cover with wax paper...they really won't last that long anyway.

Taste alone is 5 stars. That being said, I had considerable problems with the dough and it's stickiness. I followed the recipe to a "T", refrigerating the dough to allow better handling. I rolled the dough into balls with much difficulty - as i said before, sticky - and baked them for 10 minutes. They looked done, but they were not done "enough" as they fell within 5 minutes of cooling. I would suggest 15 minutes. At 15 minutes, they looked better - domed and while not "balls" as I hoped, significantly better than the saggy, craggy looking pitifuls I pulled out of the oven at 10 minutes. As for the glaze, I let the cookies cool and then applied it to each cookie with a pastry brush, sprinkling with decors as I went along. I actually ended up with much more glaze than needed.

I like these cookies because they had a different texture and were not too sweet. I did not have sprinkles so I dusted powdered sugar over the tops. Also, I used part-skim ricotta and they turned out just fine. This makes A LOT of cookies!

This is a good cookie. Very fluffy and cake-like. Not sweet, and not alot of flavor, but great with coffee. These cookies are great for people that don't like sweet cookies.

These turned out really good! This dough is sticky, but I didn't add any additional flour. I followed a previous reviewer's advice and lightly greased my hands to roll it; I had no problems. The only thing I had to change was the baking time-it took them about 14 minutes to lightly brown.
