Dishes

• Lebkuchen

  Lebkuchen is a German honey-and-spice baked good, soft and dense and somewhere between a cookie and a cake, eaten above all at Christmas.

• Pfeffernusse

  Pfeffernusse are small, round, hard-then-softening spice cookies from the German Christmas tradition, usually about the size of a walnut and generally finished with a white sugar glaze.

• Pizzelle

  A pizzelle is a thin, flat, crisp Italian cookie cooked by pressing a spoonful of batter between the two hot patterned plates of an iron, so it comes out round, wafer-thin and embossed all over with a design: most often a snowflake.
