CINNAMON STARS (ZIMTSTERNE)
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Butter one or two large cookie sheets.
- Beat egg whites and as they begin to foam and stiffen, gradually beat in sugar. Continue beating until whites form stiff peaks that retain the mark of a knife blade. Set aside half a cup of the whites.
- Sprinkle remaining whites with cinnamon, one and a half cups of almonds and vanilla extract or brandy.
- Stir together gently but thoroughly. Mixture should be thick and fairly solid. Add more almonds if dough is too sticky to be rolled.
- Sprinkle pastry board with sugar and roll out dough to onefourth inch thickness. Cut into star shapes with a small cookie cutter.
- Arrange on buttered baking sheet and brush top of each cookie with a little of the reserved egg whites. Bake in preheated oven about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
