Making Cookies




For the last few days my host mom and me have been making cookies. Overall we've probably made at least 250 of all varieties. Lebkuchen (gingerbread), Gefuehl Lebkuchen (gingerbread with a fruit cake filling and a chocolate cover), Vanillakipferl (sugar/almond cookies in the shape of moons), and Kokokugeln (chocolate coconut no bake cookies).
Tonight was Lebkuchen for ornaments and to eat. We decorated them with traditional candied cherries, green hard candy and almonds. My favorite so far are the Kokokugeln. I think when I get home I may try and make a few of them.
