"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
You can substitute a commercial blend of gluten-free flour (like BoB's Red Mill or Robin Hood) to make a gluten-free version. Be sure the cany you use is gluten-free. Rolo™ candy is gluten-free.

How to Freeze Cookie Dough: If you want to freeze the cookie dough, scoop the dough into cookie balls and place them on a baking sheet. Place the sheet in the freezer and freeze until the cookie dough balls are firm, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a freezer bag or freezer container. Freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, preheat the oven and add a couple of minutes to the baking time. You don’t have to defrost the dough.
