German Easter Cookies - Mini Amerikaner - Recipe: https://alltastesgerman.com/easter-mini-amerikanerNobody really knows for sure why these German cookies are called Americans, but one story is that these traditional German dome shaped cookies were first introduced in New York by a Bavarian immigrant baker. A different version says that the Germans changed the name of the cookie from Ammonia to Amerikaner because in the 50ties the GIs loved this German pastry so much.
