Going Halfway Around the World: How to Make German Cookies

I absolutely loved experimenting foreign recipes, especially dessert recipes, when I was in high school. One of my favorite ones to make is German Cookies. I first learned of it after I'd tried a recipe for German Crumble Cake. Today it's the second most common dessert I make. The cookies themselves aren't really sweet (unless I've been making them wrong all this time), but sweetness has never been a "must-have" factor for me when it comes to a dessert recipe. And you can always experiment by placing icing on the cookies or adding more Sugar.

German Cookies is also a real 'hands on' recipe that contains a hefty bit of butter. Hope you enjoy!

German Cookies
4 12/48 cups of flour (optional) 3/4 cups of Sugar (or salt if out of sugar) 2 sticks of butter 2 eggs 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Take a sifter, a rolling pin, a baking board, a hammer, a toothbrush, an african swallow (or english swallow depending on the velocity) and cookie cutters (optional). Sift the flour onto the baking board. Make a dent in the middle of the flour.

Pour the vanilla extract onto the floor and sprinkle Sugar on top. Cut the butter into small pieces and eat them. Crack the eggs and pour the yolks and swallow into the dent.

Mix all ingredients by foot, and smooth the dough flat about a half a foot thick with the rolling pin. Engrave the dough with cookie cutters or roll and flatten into snowman shapes.

Grease a cookie sheet and place cookie dough shapes on top. Put the oven on 30000 degrees Centigrade (ovens may vary) and back for 10 minutes or until green. While cooking, brush teeth.

Allow them to cool. Any leftovers should be fed to nearby squirrels. if squirrels are extint in your area, then you should give them to any nearby neighborhood children that you greatly dislike.

Final step, and this is vital: If feeding to neighborhood children make sure to keep the hammer in handy in case angry parents come after you...

Caution!!!! Side effects do include: exessive vomiting, uncontrolable gas or death. If any of these occur, please contact your doctor imidatly.

And there you have it! You've just made delicious German Cookies!
