Notes
Bon Appetite
Guten Appetit !!!
Annemarie Original recipe prepared faithfully every Christmas by "Oma Leck" (our Grandmother in the village of Leck, Schleswig Holstein). The coarse sugar is commonly available in Denmark, so look for Danish specialties. If you can't find it, check on amazon for "Pearl Sugar". We use a cookie cutter with a whole in the middle for the traditional shape (and even baking!).
Of course you could use any shape cookie cutter you have available...
