This is a traditional Easter dessert from Favara, Italy on the island of Sicily where my Nonna is from. It’s made with ground almonds, ground pistachios, sugar, and lots of love. To make it you need a special mold to shape it into a lamb. After it’s shaped into a lamb, you can paint a face onto it using melted chocolate. We also add a little bell around its neck and a small Italian flag on it’s back. We decorate the plate with more almond paste dyed green to look like grass and some jelly beans. My favorite part is making the lamb’s wool.
