      Title: Grandma Young's Pfeffernusse
 Categories: Cookies, Herbs, Snacks, Dairy
      Yield: 123 Servings
 
      4 c  Brown sugar; well-packed
     12 c  White sugar
      2 qt Lard
      1 qt Milk
      2 qt Ddark corn syrup
      1 tb (ea) cinnamon, cloves, mace,
           - nutmeg, allspice,
           - ginger
      2 tb Ground cardamom
      4 tb Ground star anise
      6 tb Baking powder
      1 tb Baking soda
      2 tb Salt
     40 c  (more or less) flour; enough
           - to make a very stiff dough
 
  Boil sugar, lard, syrup, and water/milk until dissolved.
  Allow to cool.
  
  Add other ingredients. Early additions of flour may be
  done with a mixer, but most will have to be mixed in by
  a strong arm.
  
  Shape into very small pieces: use either snake method,
  or cut-slab method.
  
  Place an empty baking sheet on the lowest rack of the
  oven to make more even baking. Peppernuts burn quite
  easily, and ideally should be baked until just before
  burning point.
  
  Place dough pieces on cookie sheets, and bake one at a
  time in middle rack of oven.
  
  Bake @ 350ºF/175ºC for about 10 minutes.
  
  NOTE FROM DAD: "Aunt Clara's recipe was at least double
  the recipe above. One half of the above recipe makes a
  huge batch. One fourth is probably more sane."
