Do you know what springerle are? Traditionally leavened with hartshorn (baker’s ammonia) and flavored with anise or lemon, these pretty embossed cookies date back to 14th-century Germany. The intricate molds that shape them are typically carved from wood.

Springerle hold their gorgeous designs so well thanks to the baker's ammonia ♥︎ fikabrodbox.com #germanbaking #weihnachten #springerle

Very little evokes the spirit of the season as well as the sugary scent of a warm batch of cookies baking in the oven. We don't need words to describe the waft of golden butter and warm vanilla mingling with the perfume of pastry; we need only our senses and a store of Christmas memories
