Fattigmann / Poor Man
Ingredients:
4 egg yolks
1 whole egg
4 Tb sugar
3 Tb heavy cream
1 Tb cognac
1/2 tsp grated lemon peel
1/2 tsp cardamom
approx. 180 g/6 oz/1 1/4 cups flour
Beat egg yolks, egg and sugar light and fluffy. Beat vream stiff and add it
to egg mixture with cognac. Add spices and flour. The dough should be
somewhat moist. Cover well and refrigerate over night.
Roll dough thin and cut in diamonds. Do not give up if you find it
impossible, after a while you will manage it! Cut a lengthwise incision in
the middle of each diamond and pull (careful) one pointed end of the cooky
through the cut to give the cookies their charachteristic shape.
Bake golden brown in deep fat or oil for 2-3 minutes. Cool on absorbent
paper.
In my home we are always two baking this: One rolling and shaping, one
baking.
