Pfeffernuesse

Today I started my Christmas baking. Put the Christmas tunes on and had some fun making up a batch of Pfeffernuesse - made almost 500 of these little guys. Nice spicy little cookies - they even have pepper in them - which I think is what Pfeffer means in German. I found the recipe on www.mennonitegirlscancook.ca. They have made the house smell wonderful! Also made a double batch of my kids favorite Dominoe Cupcakes - chocolate and cream cheese - mmmmm. The kids should be happy to come home to this baking today!
