Sicilian Fig Stuffed Cookies

(0)
"It wouldn't be Christmas without making cuccidata cookies! This recipe is from my Sicilian great grandmother and I know how much these cookies mean to my grandfather, her son, and that I keep the tradition alive. The cookies are filled with dried figs, raisins, orange marmalade, dark chocolate, walnuts, honey, cinnamon and a good splash of brandy! Like most Italian cookies they aren't sugary sweet and they go perfectly with coffee or a snifter of brandy after dinner. "
