         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."
