Rame di Napoli are cocoa cookies covered with a dark chocolate glaze, typical of Sicilian pastry, particularly from the city of Catania. Traditionally prepared for All Saints' Day, they are decorated with chopped pistachios and can include orange marmalade or Nutella.
In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, and unsweetened cocoa.
Add honey, diced butter, grated orange zest, cloves, cinnamon, baking ammonia, and milk.
Work the dough until you get a homogeneous, soft, and slightly sticky mixture.
Form balls with the dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes.
Let cool completely and brush with orange marmalade.
Prepare the glaze by melting chocolate and butter in a double boiler.
Glaze the Rame di Napoli by dipping the top in chocolate and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
Allow the glaze to dry well before serving.
