SPITZBUBEN! They are Plätzchen!! Tough one ;) Nomnom. Another cookie recipe for you guys! These are particularly cute - their name translates to “rascals”. I think they’re originally from Switzerland. My mom bakes them every year and they’re simply delicious! You need: 1 1/8 cups butter 1 cup confectioners’ sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla sugar 1 pinch salt 1 egg white 3 1/8 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup fruit preserves, any flavor 1/3 cup confectioners’ sugar for decoration Beat butter or margarine until soft and fluffy. Mix in the sugar. Beat the egg white into the creamed mixture and add to the flour mix. Cover the dough, and rest the dough in the refrigerator for one hour. Roll it out until it is about 3/4 inch thick. Cut out circles with pastry cutters and smaller shapes into the middle the circles. Bake in a preheated 400 ° F (200° C) oven for 6 to 8 minutes. Warm up jam (whatever flavour you like, usually its something like raspberry) and put some on the cookies without the hole. Then add a cookie with a hole on top - they’ll stick together. For decoration, sprinkle with powdered sugar. GUTEN APPETIT!
