Cassatella Di Agira
Cassatella di Agira is a Sicilian half-moon pastry filled with a fragrant cocoa, almond, and chickpea-flour mixture. The tender shell bakes until pale gold, then a dusting of sugar highlights the dark spiced filling without making it too rich.

Rub flour, sugar, and butter together, add egg and enough water for a smooth dough, then rest it chilled.
Cook almonds, chickpea flour, cocoa, cinnamon, lemon zest, sugar, and a little water into a thick filling.
Roll dough thin, cut rounds, add filling, fold into half moons, and crimp the edges firmly.
Bake until lightly golden, cool completely, and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
