Does anyone here make springerle cookies for Christmas? DH's mother made them every year when he was growing up and he mentions them from time to time. I was all ready to make them this year (got the MIL's recipe, although it didn't have a lot of detail about the process), and then I found this: The Springerle Baker
I don't bake much, so I don't have a stand mixer. Is it reasonable in this day and age to spend an hour or more mixing batter for cookies with a cheap hand mixer from Target? Who thought up this stuff, anyway? I think it was the Austrian emperor's royal kitchen. Who else would have the time to make these edible works of art?
