This recipe comes from Christmas, 1961. These bars have a light, tart frosting. This dough needs to ripen for a couple of days, but it's worth it.

This is a German spice cookie recipe, similar to gingerbread, which I received from my mother, Sabine Muller. I thought that I would share it with you. The literal translation is 'pepper cakes', I always ice them with a lemon glaze.
