Fregolotta, a Venetian cookie akin to buttery streusel topping, takes its name from “fregola,” the Italian word for “crumb.” The sweet gets its name not only from the pebbly, crumby appearance of the unbaked mixture, but the cookie also is broken into rustic shards or coarse crumbs for serving. Offer pieces of fregolotta alongside coffee, tea or dessert wine, or crumble it onto bowls of ice cream. In an airtight container, leftovers will keep for up to a week.

Great recipe
A very easy and delicious recipe. But I don’t understand why you don’t use weights in ounces for those of us past volume measurements - which is most of us these days.
