Christmas Cookies
Some fun Christmas cookies Petra learned to make in Czech Republic.
Berlinerkranzer - Little Wreaths
Recipe:
The German cookie, Berlinerkranzer, or Little Wreaths, can be made in various ways. In this video I chose to color the dough instead of using colored sugar. As promised, I am making the old world cookies as simple as possible. I will be using prepared sugar cookie dough as my base cookie dough and using a variety of natural additives, coloring, and flavorings.
