PEPPA KAKKA (Paper Cookies)
I love these cookies with my coffee,
and because they're so thin, I think I'm cheating when I eat them ;)
besides they have ginger and cinnamon in them,
isn't that suppose to be good for you??? :D LOL
PEPPA KAKKA (Paper Cookies)
Makes about 50 cookies
1 ½ cups oleo or butter (I use butter)
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon of dark Karo syrup
1 beaten egg
2 teaspoons soda
3 ½ cups flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ginger
2 teaspoons cloves
2 cups sliced almonds
Cream the butter and the sugar.
Add the egg and Karo syrup to sugar/butter mixture.
Sift together the flour, soda and spices.
Beat the flour mixture into the butter/sugar mixture, several tablespoons at a time.
Stir in the sliced almonds.
Form the dough into 2 rolls, each about two inches in diameter.
Wrap each roll in plastic wrap, place on a cutting board/plate and refrigerate overnight.
Slice as thin as possible. (dental floss works great)
Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
The cookies should be very crisp but not burned around the edges.
Cool. Store in airtight container.
