Savoiardi (ladyfingers) are Italian biscuits that are light, airy, and slightly sweet. This homemade Savoiardi recipe uses simple ingredients like eggs, sugar, flour, and vanilla extract to create these sweet treats. Eat them on their own or use in tiramisu.
Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixer, beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla on high for 15 minutes.
Sift flour and slowly fold into the batter by hand until the flour is fully mixed into the batter.
Fill a piping bag with batter and snip off a 1-inch tip.
Pipe 3-4 inch long and 1 inch wide savoiardi onto the sheets, spaced apart.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until set on top and golden underneath, watching to avoid overbaking.
Let cool for a few minutes on a cooling rack.

Notes
Sifting flour helps to create a lighter more airy texture to these Italian cookies.
Take care to gently fold in the flour while mixing. Overmixing can result in a flat cookie.
