About the dish

Cuccidati are traditional Sicilian cookies stuffed with figs. Flaky, rich, and delicious, they consist of flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and milk, while the filling is a combination of dried figs, raisins, dates, honey, chocolate, walnuts, and selected spices. These sweet treats can be found in most Italian bakeries during the festive Christmas season, when they are traditionally prepared for the occasion.
