I have one from my grandmother (i am 100% italian) and it is called Taralli. It is a hard cookie that is usually dunked into milk or coffee.
Here is one I found online, if I can find the one from my grandma, I’ll come back and post it…

Ingredients
Dough
5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
6 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Icing
3 cups confectioners’ sugar
4 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Multi-colored nonpareils, optional
3 cookie sheets or jelly roll pans covered with parchment paper
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set racks in upper and lower thirds.
For the dough, combine the flour and baking powder, stirring well to mix. Whisk the eggs in a bowl, then whisk in all the remaining ingredients in order. Fold in the flour mixture.
Turn dough out on a floured surface and knead lightly to mix. Separate into 16 equal pieces. Roll each to an 8-inch rope, then into a circle. Place 5 or 6 on each pan.
Bake the taralli about 30 to 40 minutes, or until well puffed and deep golden. Cool on racks.
For the icing, combine all ingredients in a saucepan and heat gently until lukewarm. Brush over the tops of the cooled cookies. Sprinkle with multi-colored nonpareils, if desired.

I couldn’t find what you were talking about…not by the name anyway. Any more details? Perhaps ingredients or what color it was or anything like that?
Here’s a site with 50 or so recipes for Italian cookies.
