Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 eggs
⅔ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt
¾ cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line three jelly roll pans with parchment paper. Prepare a pastry bag with a size 6 tip (1/2 inch).
  • Separate the eggs. Whisk the egg yolks with 1/2 of the sugar and all of the vanilla. Beat until very light colored. This will take about 5 minutes.
  • In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until they hold soft peaks. While beating, slowly add the salt and the remaining sugar until combined. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture.
  • Sift the flour over the egg mixture and gently fold it in.
  • Fill the pastry with half of the batter and pipe 3 1/2 inch fingers, 1 1/2 inches apart, in rows on the parchment paper. Continue with the second half of the batter in the same manner.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 15 minutes until firm to the touch and golden. Remove the paper and fingers from the baking sheet and place on racks to cool. After cooling, remove fingers from the paper and use, or store between layers of wax paper in a airtight container. These freeze well.

Savoiardi, also known as lady fingers, is a light Italian cookie. It can be eaten plain, with coffee or used in Tiramisu. My cousin owns an Italian bakery, and this is her recipe!

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 egg yolks
⅜ cup sugar
⅜ cup all-purpose flour
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 egg whites
1 ½ tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, whip egg yolks and 3/8 cup of white sugar until thick and pale. Whisk in flour and salt just until smooth. Stir in vanilla. In a separate glass or metal bowl, whip egg whites until they are able to hold firm peaks. Fold egg whites into the egg yolk mixture until fully incorporated.
  • Drop the batter by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, and shape into 3 inch long strips. Stir together the remaining white sugar and confectioners' sugar, and sprinkle half of the mixture over the tops of the strips. Let stand for 10 minutes, then sprinkle the remaining sugar mixture over them, and let stand for 5 more minutes.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Cool on a wire rack.
