I have been baking with my grandmother since I am 7 years old. I am now 34, carrying on the tradition of the struffoli. My grandmother passed away last year, and it was devastating to me. She was my best friend. I continue all her traditions, especially the struffoli which she made the week of Christmas, to serve on Christmas eve. My grandmother didn’t read or write English, she came from Italy. So this recipe is special it is her own made up recipe I was able to aquire from her as we baked and tweeked.
