Daily News | Is this ricotta chocolate chip treat the ultimate Philly cookie?
If you were to go by Philly’s national food reputation, you’d think the city had a major salt tooth, what with the sandwiches, pretzels, and scrapple. And you wouldn’t be wrong.
Philly’s holiday cookies come in all stripes, influenced by various baking traditions. There are cinnamon stars at Bredenbeck’s, alfajores from Jezabel’s, butter cookies from Danish Bakers, ginger snaps from Darnel’s, shortbread from Cake Life, linzer cookies from Essen, chocolate chips from Famous 4th Street, and many, many more.It’s an almost impossible question to answer, but one thought did come to mind: the feathery ricotta cookies from Isgro Pastries.
Isgro was happy to share a recipe with The Inquirer for its cookie issue — just not the best-selling ricotta cookies. “I’m pretty sure my dad would kill me,” he says. “That’s his baby.” “He would leave certain ingredients out so that if somebody were to want to get the recipe, then go somewhere else, if they tried to steal the recipe, it wouldn’t come out,” A.J. says of his father. The ethereal, pillow-soft texture sets Isgro’s ricotta cookies apart — and in some ways, they’re not true cookies. “This is more like a sponge,” the younger Isgro says as he pipes out generous dollops of pale batter onto a sheet pan. They bake up in minutes.
