Caroline Manzo is joined by Stuart O'Keeffe and Amy Phillips to make an Italian holiday favorite – struffoli! For those unfamiliar, they're basically sweet cookie balls drizzled with honey and topped with sprinkles (known as Italian honey balls to many). Your grandmother's style may vary, but struffoli comes in all shapes and sizes – in tins, as a tower, spread across a plate, with orange juice (like Caroline's recipe). They're delicious — and easy to make.
