Wine Cookies (Original Italian) Recipe

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar for decoration
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes or until slightly brown. After cookies cool they should be hard and crisp.
