Panforte - Italy

Italy's contribution to holiday food does not stop at panettone. There are several varieties in the "pan" family, and this one from Siena is worthy of your dinner table. Originally, panforte was given to monasteries as thanks for accommodations. Filled with almonds, figs and other dried fruits, this rich "bread" incorporates honey and spices for a dense dessert typically served with coffee. Get the recipe here.
