I wanted to keep up a tradition my dad’s done every Christmas season, so this is my second attempt at the cookies.

Aside from what’s on austria.info, do you have any or know a place to find traditional Austrian baking (or cooking) recipes?

  1. One of the most influential cookbooks in Austria is Ewald Plachutta’s “Die gute Küche“. It’s written in German though there are English examples as well but I haven’t read any translated versions.

    It covers all essential Austrian dishes and Ewald Plachutta is one of Austria’s most decorated chefs with several restaurants in Vienna. My mom has a copy, I have a copy, my neighbor has a copy… chances are that you will find this in many if not most Austrian households.

  2. A bit more powdered sugar on them than I usually see.. but that’s a very nitty nit to pick. They look absolutely delicious, congratulations!
