Springerle

Posted August 2019 
by Stephen Schmidt 

Hard, anise-flavored German cookies stamped with fanciful designs using a specialized rolling pin, a cookie board, or individual cookie stamps. The cookies are traditional at Christmas. The simple egg-and-sugar dough of Springerle is similar to that of the original English jumbles (see above) and both may share a common origin in Renaissance Italy.
