DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and sugar. Add the wine and oil. Mix with a large fork and then with your hands.
Roll small pieces of dough between hands to make "logs" then shape into circles. The circles should be no bigger than the 2 inches in diameter. Roll cookies in extra sugar and place on cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes or until slightly brown. After cookies cool they should be hard and crisp.

These were delicious. I made half the recipe because I wasn't sure I'd like them, but kept the amount of sugar the same. The one thing I did not do, however, is grease the pan, which I *strongly* recommend! They were impossible to get off the pan without breaking them. Even my children loved these mildly sweet, yeasty tasting cookies. I'll definitely make them again!

These are perfect! Anyone who says they're not a cookie doesn't know what a wine cookie is supposed to be. No, it's not a Chipsahoy, but it's an excellent wine cookie... easy and delicious!

The easiest cookie recipe ever. Although to improve the flavor slightly I added about a teaspoon of vanilla and a half of a lemon peel chopped finely. Half the batch I coated with regular sugar like the recipe suggested, the other half I added a little color and coated them with small, round, colored sprinkles.

This recipe did not turn out for me. It tasted like when I make sourdough bread and it does not rise properly. I even tried adding a little salt to the dough but it didn't help. Sorry!

Fantastic... Just remember to coat the sugar on both sides... for extra crunchiness, make it thinner...

I guess because I'm not Italian that I didn't like these cookies. The taste of the red wine was very over powering and yet the cookie itself is bland for my taste. This reminded me of the beer bread recipe I have, but the beer bread, I think, is better.

i wasnt sure if i was going to like these so i divided the mixture by 3 so i would only make a few. I had to add a bit more wine. They smelt like a bakery when cooking. They came out weird looking and very purple. They were a bit bland but quite sweet. i have never had wine cookies before so im not sure if thats how they were supposed to taste. i think ill have to eat a few more to see if i like them or not! by far the strangest cookies ive ever made!
