ITALIAN CHRISTMAS SPICE COOKIES
While growing up in Boston, every Christmas my Neopolitan auntie would make a delicious chocolate round cookie spiced with cloves. She called them "Todors" (phonetic spelling). It's been 50 years since I've had them as no bakery seems to make them. Finally, after much research, I was able to locate a recipe that sounded just like the real thing. I tweaked the recipe a bit till I got the taste that I remembered. Warning: You can't each just one.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa, cloves, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg.
- In a large separate bowl mix together eggs, sugar, oil, milk and vanilla.
- Add flour mixture to wet mixture in small batches and mix until combined.
- Add chocolate chips and chopped almonds. Dough will be very stiff.
- With lightly oiled hands, continue to mix the dough till all ingredients are incorporated. Wash hands thoroughly.

- Arrange on prepared baking sheet 2" apart and bake for 10 minutes.
- Once cooled, dip the top of each cookie into the chocolate glaze. While still wet garnish tops with a few sliced almonds.
- When set, re-dip the bottom of each cookie back into the chocolate glaze and let set again.
- While still slightly wet, generously dust or roll each cookie into 1 cup powdered sugar.
- Set aside to dry before stacking.
- Cookies will keep in an airtight container for 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and salt.
- Beat the shortening and butter with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until combined. Mix in the chopped almonds and orange zest. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir until combined.
- Transfer the cookie dough to a lightly floured surface and roll it into a rectangle about 13 inches long. Cut the dough into 3 1/2-inch rectangles using a fluted pastry wheel or sharp paring knife. Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheets, and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Combine the sifted confectioners' sugar, the orange marmalade, and the orange juice and stir well. Spread the glaze on the cookies and garnish with sliced almonds, if desired.
