 Ingredients
- 1 1/8 cups butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Cream the butter and the sugar together until light and fluffy. Stir
in the cream. Add the baking soda and little water (no more than 2
tablespoons) to the butter mixture. Sift the spices, baking powder and flour into the butter mixture.
Blend until a nice dough is formed. Roll dough into sausages about
2-1/2
inches in diameter wrap tightly and let dough chill thoroughly. Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C). Remove chilled dough
and cut into thin slices. Bake on a lightly greased cookie sheet for 6
to 8 minutes. Let cookies cool on wire rack.
