Christmas Recipe - Italian Struffoli

A Time For Sharing......
During the holidays, EVERYONE is reminiscent of something they grew up with. Cake, lasagna, homemade eggnog......or cookies! This is a special recipe that my family, as many others, grew up with. We always ate these little honey balls, and they are Sooooo Yummy!
Rather than just giving you a photo and a recipe...I thought it would be more fun to actually watch how easy these are made- and low and behold! YouTube has such a video! (who woulda thought?)
So...in the spirit of sharing, here is my most favorite holiday treat.
(note: the video is done in both Italian and English- also we used candy ball sprinkles, whereas this is using
Christmas confetti sprinkles. You choose what you like.)
Watch, create, and start a new tradition at your home.
