So to master this festive spin, you need to know how to create De Laurentii’s lemon ricotta cookies. To master that, you need ingredients for both the cookies and mouth-watering glaze. For the cookies, you need ingredients like all-purpose flour, sugar, milk ricotta cheese, lemons, and more. Then you only need a few ingredients for the glaze, with the base being lemon juice.

Start mixing the flour, salt, and a few other ingredients in a medium bowl and in no time, you’ll be spooning half a teaspoon of the glaze onto each cookie.
