My Sicilian husband just loves anything licorice. This is his favorite cookie and I purchase them from the Italian bakery often. I tried this recipie and made them one morning while he was still sleeping. He thought I bought them, but the evidence was in the kitchen sink! This is my second time making them. I made 2 smaller loaves instead of one big one, because the cookies came too big. When I form the logs, I dampen my hands slightly since the batter is very sticky. It worked out great! They get better and better with a little practice. Also, I round out the edges of the log for the traditional shape.
