LEBKUCHEN
The German town of Nuremberg has been famous for its lebkuchen since the late 1300s. The soft, cakey cookies are traditionally made with several spices, candied citrus peel, hazelnuts, and almonds.

Steps:
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Pulse almonds and hazelnuts in a food processor until very finely chopped. Add candied peels and dates, and pulse until finely chopped. Add almond paste, and pulse to combine. Add jam, and pulse. Add eggs and brown sugar, and pulse. Add flour mixture, and pulse. Transfer dough to an airtight container, and refrigerate overnight (or up to 3 days).
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Using a 2-inch ice cream scoop (1/4 cup), drop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing cookies 3 inches apart. Place 3 almonds close together on top of each cookie. Bake until golden brown, about 14 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.
- Whisk together confectioners' sugar and milk, and brush over cooled cookies. Let stand until set.
NUERNBERGER ELISENLEBKUCHEN
There are many different recipes for elisenlebkuchen, but as far as I know this one is the original. I found it in my late oncle's handwritten book - he was supposed to inherit my grandfather's confection shop and cafe but died at the age of 18, just after having finished confectionary school. These lebkuchen usually are made with thin wafers like communion wafers but since being gluten free I make them without and it works well, too. For more taste, I prefer brown sugar, but originally it is just plain sugar. Depending on the size of your eggs, you might need some more ground hazelnuts. The batter should have a smooth spreading consistency, so if it's too thin, just add some more ground nuts until desired consistency is reached. Personally, I use only half the sugar, but that's presonal preference. They are glazed with light and dark icing but of course you can only use one of them instead of both.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 F or 150 C and grease cookie sheet. If you have a silicon cookie sheet, this works best.
- Cream together eggs and sugar at high speed until you have a thick yellow cream. This will take some time, but don't stop beating before the mixture is really thick and creamy!
- Mix in spices, rum, vanilla and candied peel, then fold in ground almonds, nuts and baking powder.
- Drop heaped teaspoons full of batter onto greased cookie sheet and flatten slightly.
- Bake at 300 degrees 25 - 35 minutes.
- For the light glaze stir together 3 1/2 ounces powdered sugar with just as much hot water that you get a thick creamy icing.
- For the dark glaze stir together 3 1/2 ounces powdered sugar with the cocoa powder, melt the coconut oil and mix with sugar and cocoa, add just enough hot water to have a smooth thick creamy icing.
- Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven glaze half of them with light and half with dark icing.
- Let cool completely and store in airtight container in a cool place.

Steps:
- Mix honey, sugar, eggbeater, lemon juice and rind. Blend dry ingredients separately.
- Stir the wet into the dry. Chill overnight.
- When ready to cook, heat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Roll out a small amount of dough at a time to a 1/4 " thick log. Cut into 2" rounds.
- Place each cookie round on a nonstick cookie sheet, and place a slivered almond in the center if desired.
- Bake about 12 minutes, or until set.
- Immediately brush with glazing icing, if desired:
- boil sugar and water until the first indication of a 'thread' appears as it thickens (around 230 degrees).
- Remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar. Bush this lightly over the cookies (when the icing gets sugary, reheat slightly, adding a little water until clear again).
