Bruttiboni, also known as mandorlati di San Clemente and brutti ma buoni ( lit. 'ugly but good'), is a type of hazelnut or almond-flavoured biscuit made in Prato, Tuscany, and many other cities. These cookies are made by incorporating meringue; an egg white and sugar mixture; with roasted chopped nuts. The cookies are crunchy on the outside with a soft texture in the middle. As with many other Italian cookies, their origin is disputed but they have been made since at least the mid-1800s.
In Prato they are often sold with biscottini di Prato. [1] [2] [3] [4]
