Posted: Mon Dec 03, 18 4:33 pm Post subject: Holiday Cookies |
|
Three batches of fruitcake baked and receiving their "baptisms" of brandy. Now to move on to the cookies. There are some that I really, really like but only make at this time of year. Makes them special to the season.
Springerle, anise cookies that are stamped with a special rolling pin, then cut apart before baking. Lebkuchen, made with spices and honey and candied citron, baked in a pan, cut into small squares, given a lemon frosting. Both are very good "keepers." Almond cookies have finely ground nuts, formed into a roll, refrigerated, and then sliced into individual cookies before baking. Rugelach, a cream cheese butter sort of pastry with a raisin walnut filling.
What cookies do you bake for the holidays? |
