Briccioline is a wheat flour cookies baked by Augustinian nuns using firewood in Tabalong, Dauis, Bohol. When I first tasted the cookies I liked the taste because it has moderate sweetness. It is delicious and crunchy. Its crunchiness adds the quality of the said cookies which you will enjoy every bite of it. Para sa akin hindi sya nakakasawang kainin.
Host (bread) being served during the Holy Eucharist by Catholic churches is made up of wheat flour. Augustinian Nuns made those hosts (bread) and formed into circles and the cuttings being left are the main ingredient of Briccioline. Instead of throwing it away, they made it into delicious cookies and they sell it to add funds for the congregation.
Augustinian nuns are the most ancient and continuous segment of the Roman Catholic Augustinian religious order under the canons of contemporary historical method. The Augustinian nuns, named after Saint Augustine of Hippo are several Roman Catholic enclosed monastic orders of women living according to a guide of religious life known as the Rule of St. Augustine.
