A warm latte for that time of the year
“Batticuore” literally means “heartthrob” in Italian. And Batticuori are one of my absolute favorite cookies by Mulino Bianco.
My Italian teacher first introduced me to Mulino Bianco (meaning White Mill) last semester in a course appropriately titled, “Let’s Eat, Italy!” From then on, I have been obsessed with Mulino Bianco’s line of cookies. There’s something about the flour they use that makes them so crumbly and addicting!
Not to mention a perfect addition to a latte…
