Directions
Chrusciki- Bow Knots, These Polish cookies are very time consuming to make It’s a great help to have a bunch of your favorite family members to help! They are very flavorful and rich This recipe makes hundreds of cookies Literally But they are worth it in the end The cognac can easily be omitted entirely But why bother! You can cut the kneading time down by using a food processor! Use a couple of pans for frying to make it go faster! (Assembly line)! Cook time is 1 minute per batch of cookies!, OMG! My sister and I grew up getting these every year for Christmas from a her godfather and I finally attempted to made them this year myself and surprise my sister 🙂 They were amazing! She loved them too Thank you for this recipe! Also for people who are lazy like me, used the dough to made some cookies right away and saved half in the fridge for the next day and they were still the same Just double wrap in plastic wrap But I rolled the second batch wayy thinner and fried as I cut and they taste just as I remember when they are thinner :-), This is a great one Some of my Polish cook books have any flavor to them and these are yummy My son is getting married and they want a family reciepe for their wedding favor, we are doing this one as ours so thanks so much for the post
