These soft and caky cookies will be a new favorite Italian Christmas dessert at this year's holiday cookie swap! They're simple and elegant, with a texture similar to a thick, just-set sugar cookie. Almond extract gives the dough a subtle, irresistible flavor, and the simple vanilla icing hardens into a delicate shell. Just don't forget the Christmas sprinkles on top!
