- When you are ready to bake them, preheat the oven to 180*C/350*F/ gas mark 4. Line several baking sheets with baking paper.
- Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 12 equal slices, about 1/3 inch thick. Place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.

DAD'S MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH COOKIES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the bowl of a large mixer cream the butter until fluffy, then add vanilla and the espresso.
- In a large bowl sift the confectioners' sugar then add to it the butter mixture in the mixer and mix well.
- In the same bowl used to sift the sugar, add flour and salt and sift. Add them to the mixer that contains the cream, butter mixture. Turn the mixture out on a floured board and sprinkle the pine nuts on the mixture and mix nuts in well with your hands (if dough gets too sticky add a bit more flour to the board and to your hands). When nuts are mixed in, place mixture in a large glass bowl and put in refrigerator for 1/2 hour to make it easier to roll. Take bowl out of the refrigerator and with your hands pick up walnut sized balls of dough, roll them in your hands and place them in an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until cookies turn a light golden brown. When all of the cookies have been baked place them on a cooling rack overnight. If you are pressed for time 5 hours will do.
- In a large resealable plastic bag place the pound of confectioners' sugar (this is a bit of overkill but I wanted to have enough powdered sugar for the cookies). Add 6 to 12 cookies at a time and gently toss them in the powdered sugar and then place them on a cooling rack trying not to disturb the sugar coating. Continue until all cookies are coated. Let cookies rest so that the coating really adheres. Now - when you eat one - you will want another and another and another!
- My Dad used to also coat these cookies with raw sugar (that he had family ship from Italy), and I have made them that way also. However, people seem to like the powdered sugar more.

Tips:
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Use parchment paper: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for cookies is 350°F (175°C). Baking the cookies at a higher temperature will make them brown too quickly and may burn them.
- Let the cookies cool completely: Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack. This will help them to set and firm up.

These classic recipes are sure to satisfy any cookie lover. With a variety of flavors and textures to choose from, there's something for everyone.
