From a little Swedish recipe book of mine. I just love Pepparkakor- I would always get the Anna's Pepparkakor that come in a nice tin at the Swedish Kontur Shop in St. Peter. They would either be shaped like hearts or be a flower-like shape. A very special treat! Ingredients:
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup boiling water |
1 cup white sugar |
1 cup butter, melted |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup dark molasses |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1/2 teaspoon clove |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 egg |
3 cups flour |
Directions:
1. Dissolve baking soda in the boiling water.
2. Mix all ingredients together.
3. Roll very thin.
4. Cut dough with a cookie cutter.
5. Bake at 325 degrees until light brown. Watch carefully, as cookies brown very quickly.
