Message: [QUOTE="mbr33ct, post: 2957652, member: 7842"] As an Italian-American arriving by boat (yes boats at that time) in 1959, our traditional Christmas dessert is this fried cookie "rosette" topped with honey, chopped walnuts and some colored shots. In our hometown of Vieste, in the Puglia region, we called them Colustros (dialect to our hometown). Google search for that name comes up empty, however it seems the true name for them in Puglia are called Cartellate Pugliese.
