HAZELNUT TOFFEE ZUCCOTTO
As a grandmother and great-grandmother, I've always enjoyed cooking and creating recipes. In our home, we love to make Italian food because it's our favorite type of cuisine. Zuccotto, which means "little pumpkin" in Italian, is a traditional Italian dessert.-Patricia Harmon, Baden, Pennsylvania
