Coconut Kisses (“kokosbusserl”)
These small delicacies are rich, moist and full of flavour. And so simple. A traditional Austrian Christmas speciality absolutely worthy of being an all-year- rounder.
Mandelkränzchen (Almond Wreaths)
This old recipe is from my grandmother’s recipe box. I’m not sure where she got it. I do remember eating them at her house during christmas past. My sister and I would use one finger each in the center hole and try and tear the cookie apart kind of like a wishbone. Who ever got the bigger section won and, of course, we each would keep winning and that meant eating more cookies. The time does not include overnight in the refridgerator.
Old World Butter-Nut Drops
These beautiful little cookies with a decided old-world taste are perfect for Christmas. I got the recipe from my great-aunt who made it for the family Christmas dinner for years before she turned the recipe over to my mother. Candied cherries contribute to the beauty of the cookies and I suppose it is the Brazil nuts that contribute to the taste. All I know is, they are delicious! Chilling time is not included in the preparation time.
Viennese Shortbread Biscuits
This is my dear friend Fouzia Parkar’s recipe. She is a thorough expert in baking and is a miracle cook too:) I’m sure these will leave you wanting for more, so give it a shot!
