Pepperkaker

48 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
100 millilitres Sugar syrup [corn syrup will work; for those in the us]
150 grams Sugar
150 grams Butter
100 millilitres Whipping cream
½ teaspoon Cloves
½ teaspoon Ginger (up to)
1 teaspoon Pepper
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Baking powder
400 grams Flour

Directions

Cook syrup, sugar and butter together over low heat until the butter melts.

Stir until the crystals of the sugar are gone, and allow to cool. Stir in the cream. Mix the spices, baking powder and most of the flour into the mixture. Stir the dough together and sprinkle the rest of the flour over.

Let the dough sit in a cool place until the next day. The best place is a cold room or the basement; if you put it in the refrigerator, take it out a few hours before baking. Knead the dough a bit until it is elastic.

Roll out to about 3-4 mm thick. Cut with cookie cutters. Large shapes should be pricked here and there with a fork so they hold their shape during baking. Bake at 175C for about 10 min.
