Pennsylvania Dutch Advent Cookies

Pennsylvania Dutch Advent Cookies


1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.

2. Mix first six ingredients together.

3. Add flour slowly to the rest of the mixture until it reaches the right consistency to roll out. (you may not have to use all the flour).

4. The dough should be quite soft and you may want to knead the flour in by hand.

5. Roll dough out on floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 to 1/2 inch and cut into decorative shapes with small cookie cutters, a sharp knife, or the rim of a glass. I have also made "no cut rolled cookies" by rolling into balls and flattening with the bottom of a drinking glass.

6. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes.

7. Remove from oven while they are still soft; cool on rack.

8. Pack into crocks or jars.
