Categories: German, Desserts, Holiday
Yield: 1 servings

-Miles Kimball
2 Egg yolks
1/4 ts Allspice
3 c Sugar
1/4 ts Pepper
2 c Flour
3 tb Cut citron
1 1/2 ts Ginger
2 ts Lemon rind
1/4 ts Cardamom
1/4 c Chopped almonds
1 1/4 ts Cinnamon
2 Egg whites (beaten)

At Christmas time for sugar and spice these
pfeffernusse are extra nice: try them once and you'll
be delighted

And so will the guests whom you've invited.

Here's how it's done by the German folks: add half of
the sugar to the beaten yolks, combine the mixture
with flour and spices

But keep it away from ratses and mices.

The rest of the sugar and egg whites you take, with
fruits and nuts a blend you make. To ripen it now you
store it away

And bake 18 minutes, the very next day.

Sugar while warm and you can be sure they'll tempt the
taste of an epicure.FROM: DOLORES MCCANN (BSWN00A)
