After a festive Thanksgiving, we’ll keep the Food52 Cookbook Club meetings going with a Christmas-themed candy swap! This time, we will bake and share deliciousness Dolci! By Renato Poliafito. If you were a fan of his longtime Brooklyn bakery, Baked, or a fan of Ciao, Gloria in Prospect Heights, then you know Renato is a master of cookies, cakes, and irresistible treats. In her new cookbook, she gives Italian classics an American twist and will arrive at Food52 headquarters on December 5 with cookies from Dolci! to exchange with our club.
Together we’ll pool our treats to create a holiday table filled with sweet and savory (but mostly sweet) recipes from the book, like her Spumoni Loaf (essentially a giant rainbow cookie), her delicious Caramel Amaretto Brownies, and dozens of cookies. .
