UGLY-BUT-GOOD HAZELNUT COOKIES (BRUTTI MA BUONI)
Some say brutti ma buoni, which translates to ugly but good, hail from Tuscany, though they're sold all over Italy. Featuring a mouthwatering combo of chopped hazelnuts, dark chocolate, and meringue, the cookies may not win any beauty contests, but they sure are delicious. Bonus: they're dairy- and gluten-free!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Roast hazelnuts on a baking sheet until fragrant and lightly toasted, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool briefly, then rub off skins with a clean kitchen towel. Coarsely chop hazelnuts.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium-low speed until foamy, about 4 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high and gradually add sugar. Beat until meringue is stiff and shiny, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla and salt.
- Scrape meringue into a large heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add chopped hazelnuts. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of pan to make sure meringue does not burn, until mixture is light brown and pulls away from sides of pan, about 15 minutes. (Mixture will look curdled after first 5 minutes of cooking.)
- Increase oven temperature to 325 degrees. Remove pan from heat and let cool to room temperature. Fold in chocolate.
- Scoop mounds, about 2 tablespoons each, onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 1 inch apart.
- Bake until cookies are crisp on outside but soft and chewy inside, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack and let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
"UGLY" COOKIES
I came up with these last Christmas when we had some leftover candies. They aren't the prettiest to look at when the chocolate and caramel melts (hence the name), but I keep getting requests from my husbands work to make some more.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
- Beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla together in the bowl of your electric mixer until creamy.
- Add eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Gradually beat in flour mixture (still using electric mixer).
- By hand stir in the chopped candies.
- Place rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.
- These will spread a bit and gnarl up where the caramel bits are.
- Be sure to let a cookie sheet cool completely before loading it up with another batch of cookie dough; a hot pan will make the cookies spread too much.
- Cool cookies on the baking sheets on wire racks for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
