O my gosh! So I love downton abbey yesterday I made some ccookies straight from the mansion. About a week ago Sue came into the bou and said "I've been baking cookies all day, and sweetie, you need to try these."
Pferrneuse
definitely my new favorite cookie.
Spicy with anise and molasses. Scrumptious i
s how I would describe them.
Ingredients needed to make Pfeffernusse (amount depends on size):
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup molasses
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 cups flour
1 tsp. ground allspice
1 tsp. ground ginger
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 tsp. crushed anise seeds
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
Powdered sugar for dredging (coating)
Steps:
Pre-heat your oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone sheet.
Into a mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the shortening, molasses, butter, eggs, sugar and brown sugar until light and creamy, about 5 minutes.
In large bowl, whisk the flour and the remaining ingredients, except the powdered sugar, until combined.
Add the flour mixture to the butter and beat until a stiff dough forms.
Chill the dough 1 hour.
Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out portions of the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Place into the oven and bake 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a rack.
Once cooled, dredge (coat) the Pfeffernusse in powdered sugar.
