Christmas over here is a time of cookies. Crazy amounts of cookies. These are about as christmasy as it gets over here. A wonderful juxtaposition of sweet and slightly savory, crunchy and slightly chewy. And they yield a shitload of cookies for not all that much work. This is my standard recipe, but a lot of families will have their own that’s been handed down for ages. I’m sure HappyHat’s is different and he might share it if you ask him nicely.
Note: When possible, measurements are by weight. Also this recipe freezes well in its unbaked state, so you can make plenty of dough well in advance.
These pebernødder are so ingrained in Danish christmas tradition that we even have games and idioms involving them, although most people won't ever have tasted the real thing but only the industrial processed version. A cookie which is sorely lacking in the very thing that gives them their name and make them special: Pepper. The real thing is a sweet, crunchy bite-sized cookie with a nice, mild peppery hit at the end.
