If you don’t know what an anginette is, you probably grew up outside of Connecticut, had no Italian friends and definitely don’t like desserts. Anginettes are the all-season cookie, not too heavy, not too light. They pair well with just about anything and taste just as good in the heat of the summer as they do in the doldrums of winter. They are festive enough to be the centerpiece in a holiday cookie display or casual enough to be enjoyed with a cup of coffee before you head out to work on a Tuesday morning.  They are so popular, in fact, that the East Haven rotary club just held their 6^th Annual Anginette Wars, a baking competition for New Haven County’s finest cookie makers… and my mother Cathy decided to see how she stacked up against the best around.
