I have decided to bake some biscuits for Christmas. I have narrowed my selection down to 8, lets see how many I end up doing! The current shortlist is:
pfeffenusse
Scottish shortbread
coconut macaroons
cranberry-coconut oatmeal
embossed lemon shortbread
Pizzelle (wafers)
Chocolate Brownie Cookies
“Oma’s biscuits” - another shortbread variation
I’m focusing on recipes that are not too complicated to make, keep fairly well, with at least a few that can be dunked in a cup of tea. I’ll give a few as gift boxes and take some to work, with the bulk of them to be a gift to my Mum - she has been making her own biscuits for years, but recently has started to find the effort a bit much, so I’d like to fill her biscuit jar with home made biscuits for a while.

Mice!
This is the first time in years I haven’t made lebkuchen (like pfeffenusse) so I vote for the pfeff… coconut macaroons are so easy and yum too.
Lemon shortbread!
