Dough
3 eggs
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 cups of flour plus additional flour so that the mixture will form a workable dough.
Honey Syrup
3/4 cup honey
1/3 cup sugar
Handful of whole almonds or other nuts (note: if you're making this for Rosh Hashana you may want to skip the nuts)

Steps:

Instructions Preheat oven to 375 F or 185 C Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper Using the paddle attachment, mix dough ingredient. Turn out dough on a floured board and incorporate more flour until you have a very soft workable dough. Roll out into pencil thin strips and cut into small (1/2 inch) pieces. They can be a little bigger. Teiglach puffs don't have to be perfect. Lay the pieces on the baking paper so that they don't touch and bake until they are puffed up and golden brown (about 20 minutes) Syrup In a saucepan, heat honey and sugar together and boil very gently for 3 to 5 miutes until just amber col0red. Lower the heat and stir in nuts and dough puffs tossing them with syrup and taking care not to break them. Shut flame. Prepare a lighly greased baking sheet Dip your hands in cold water. Poured the honey soaked dough puffs onto your baking sheet and mold them into pyramids. Let cool Teiglach are sticky. Store in airtight container. You can bake the teiglach first and then make syrup and assemble the next day. That's what I did.
