      This was great. the amaretto gave the cookie almost a marzipan flavour. I love chocolate and almonds so I melted some semi-sweet chocolate and spread it on the cookie. I used finely chopped almonds and chocolate and candied sprinkles to roll the semifreddo in. Delicious. Will make this again thanks.

      These were great. I had a bit of trouble cooking the cookies. I may have made them a bit thick, I turned out with 16 cookies and had to increase the cooking time to about 12 minutes at 350 for the cookies to set. Also I only have one sheet pan so I chilled the left over dough before making the second batch and found that made it much easier to roll out the dough without it sticking to my board while cutting out the cookies. I used Frangelico on the cookies and chopped almonds for the ice cream rolling. Oh, yeah, I didn't have an egg on hand, so I used Egg Replacer which worked really well, though now that I think about it may, be the reason I had trouble getting the cookies to set up.

      I found the cookie dough to be fairly easily to work with, but would caution against over working the dough. I rolled it out fairly thin and ended up with 21 cookies using a biscuit cutter. I did skip the Amaretto step. After the cookies cooled, I used purchashed vanilla bean gelato & sliced almonds to make 6 sandwiches. They were very good and I am happy I made several for the freezer. The rest of the cookies will be enjoyed plain. Made for ZWT 4.

      I cant believe I finally made an Italian frozen dessert! This was so easy, I completed the dish while waiting for laundry to dry. Used my Mexican vanilla and borrowed puppitypup's suggestion and used my pastry brush to add the Amaretto to the cookies. Used pistachios to better go with the vanilla base I was using. After this, will not be at all timid about Italian frozen desserts. Thnx Mamma Mia for posting. Made for ZWT4.

      Yum! This was so easy to put together. I did the cookie while waiting for the dinner to cook and the rest of it was very easy to assemble. If I make these again I will make the cookies a little thinner because it was difficult to cut while eating. Having to say that the cookies get 500 stars from Little Miss (DD). Thank you Mamma Mias! *Made for Zaar World Tour 4*

      This was a very well-behaved cookie dough and a pleasure to work with. I was able to get 28 cookies for 14 sandwiches. I used my cookie cutter on 1/2 inch slabs of ice cream to form the filling, returning them to the freezer until very solid. Only then did I put my sandwiches together. The kids 11-19 loved these. No amaretto. Made for the Frozen Italian Dessert Challenge-PT2, ZWT4.

      Loved it! Easy to make, tastes great and is fancy enough for company. I left my gelato out to soften while the cookies and nuts were cooling and it got a little too soft, next time I'll leave it out for only 5 minutes or so. I used a pastry brush to get the amaretto on the cookies. Thanks Mamma Mias! Made for ZWT, please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.
