Directions
amerikaner (German Vanilla Biscuit), This famous sweet biscuit literally translates into American, referring to the GIs baking this biscuit in Germany after WW II It has a fluffy soft texture and a wonderfully vanilla taste Typically it is covered with a lemon icing (and I will give that option here), but I like it way better without So do as you please :), 2nd attempt, and still very flat, any suggestions?, DH loved these I loved the fact that the recipe didn’t make dozens of cookies in fact I cut the recipe in half and got 6 nice cookies for him he loves to eat them with his coffee I did take a tiny bite just to see these are yummy and not overly sweet I also omitted the icing very easy to prepare thanks for posting 🙂
