I have used the House on the Hill recipe and video. Yours and theirs are essentially the same with some slight differences. Now that I've seen this, I'll experiment with it next time. I do like the precise way you give instructions, and the tips about moistening the bottoms of the dried cookies, etc. Very easy to follow. Thanks.
This is THE BEST Springerle demo ever! This is my go-to from now on. I'll be making these tomorrow and give you more of a review. You are so thorough. I've ordered the crinkle cutter..makes better sense than using a pastry wheel. Looking forward to getting back to you. Thank you so very much for sharing your best with us. Very appreciated.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, Tracy! These cookies are absolutely amazing depending on the flavor you choose. My favorite flavors are lemon and raspberry. My wife experimented with dipping the foot in white chocolate and milk chocolate. The raspberry flavor really complemented the milk chocolate foot. Thank you for taking the time to comment, Tracy! I hope you like my other DIY videos as well.
Awesome video! Ammonium Carbonate provides a crispness and lightness to cookies that no other ingredient can achieve. You will find alot of German cookie recipes use this ingredient. You can also use regular sugar. 200 g eggs 400 g sugar 600 g flour
Your molds are really beautiful! I have my grandmother's roller and it's much simpler. I don't know how they became a family tradition but we made them at Christmas and they were used as teethers for babies. I will have to scare up some ammonia powder and try that version now.
Thanks, Phil and I like the P.C. mold and the rest too but we can't and probably won't but go ahead! Can't beat a Kitchen-aid mixer with a dough hook and have a wonderful weekend while you're at it and GBWYall!
To be honest...... we can't eat these either! We are old enough to where we need to watch our health. LOL. We just enjoy making them and giving them away. I am thrilled that you like my PC mold! I always look forward to your comments, Lewie! GBWU2!
Thanks for this phenomenal synopsis on how to make Springerle. I will be making some for Valentine’s Day for the first time. Seems like quite the process… however, looks very fun. I have never tasted Springerle before
hello, you forgot something crucial. The Springerle are placed on whole anise seeds that are spread on the baking paper. They taste even better that way 🙃 greetings from germany
Love you comment! Thanks for the tip! My mom's side of the family is from Germany. the last name is "Faust". Springerle is in my blood.... but always room for improvement sure sure! THANKS again for the tip!
I'm just starting out now! I bought myself a rolling pin with embossed Christmas graphics on it. I'm super excited to try this! I was going to use a basic butter cookie recipe but I'm very curious about the springerle! Thank you for the video and getting me started! It's Christmas time so it's time to make lots and lots of cookies!
Best recipe I've tried so far - found that doubling the recipe works - putting dough in the refrigerator overnight does not - changed the consistency and made it unworkable.
Were they any good though? They’re breathtaking but I’m unsure as to wether they’d taste any good. Do you think you could still use the imprint on like a brown butter shortbread? Or just a more flavorful Cookie? Maybe snickerdoodle?
They are mostly 'traditional', so their flavor is traditional. Modern day desserts are hyper sweetened. These aren't as sweet, but I like them.. If you want them to be sweeter, dip the foot in chocolate. My wife has done this and they turn out really good. White chocolate and milk chocolate...
I love your recipe! These came out great! But I was wondering where you got that bench scraper with the scalloped edge? That's exactly what I need! Thanks!
The ammonia powder provides the rising that most people usually need baking powder for. Ammonia powder reacts with heat to make the cookie rise, where as baking powder need some moisture to caused the rise and you definitely do not want moisture in a spring early cookie or it won't maintain the beautiful shape.

they are prettier than they taste. LOL! German cookies are not as sweet as modern day sugar-overload cookies. I actually prefer the less-sweet flavor. must be my German blood.

This recipe came from some cookbook that my wife had. Wish I could tell you more specifics. However, I do know that there's more than one way to skin a cat. There are a lot of recipes out there. Just pick the one that suits you. Thank you for the great comment and for watching my video!
There is absolutely NO reason to toss the egg yolk. If you weigh your eggs you will find also an exact measurement. You would only need to reduce part of your eggs if your eggs are very large. This part of this video is lacking. (yes, Ive been making spingerle for 40 years)
Sounds good. I will have to experiment with that. However, I know for a fact that what I did in this case worked. Which is all that really matters to me. Thanks for the tip, I will try your method at some point.
I’ve heard it said that people toss the yolk when they want their Springerle to be more of a snow white color. His video is definitely NOT lacking, at all.
These cookies are wonderful and remind me of childhood Christmases!
We love to make them!

Really great video with concise instructions. You couldn’t have done a better job with your explanations. Thanks for posting this video. 👍🏻

YESSSSS!!! My mom and I just met you at the hospital today, thank you for showing us these!! They're amazing!! 🍪✨️💓
It was a pleasure talking to you guys! Hope you like my other videos as well!
Nice!
Thanks
Excellent explanation.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for taking the time to comment, Teresa!
Delicious ❤
It was!
Very pretty
Thank you! 😊
@@PhilCrockett you're welcome
I’ve seen them in thrift stores but I had zero idea what they were used for…..now I want one
Indeed, my wife goes to flea markets and antique malls just to look for these. These are very addictive.
Best recipe I've tried so far - found that doubling the recipe works - putting dough in the refrigerator overnight does not - changed the consistency and made it unworkable.
So glad you like my video! Thanks for the tip about putting it in the refrigerator overnight
my grandma used to make these when I was younger. I believe one of my aunts got the mold for it but I'll have to see if I can finagle it
Love comments like yours! let me know how your cookies turn out
Thanks very good vídeo ❤❤❤❤The Brazil Grandulations
Thank you too!
I add baking powder and it works beautifully, I also find that one dram of candy oil is way too much. A few drops goes a long way.
a drop goes along way for sure!
Your vídeo es very interesting.
Thanks for the nice comment
Thanks for sharing a great recipe! is the crinkle cutter you mentioned the one use to cut potatoes?
it's the one that came from pampered chef

Many thanks

I have no idea. I just filmed my wife doing this. I'm not much of a cookie maker or a cookie eater.

Lemon oil is a lot more concentrated than lemon juice or lemon flavoring. Does anyone have more specific measurements for each?

he did good
What is ammonia powder & why is it in baking?
I’ve heard it said that people toss the yolk when they want their Springerle to be more of a snow white color.
His video is definitely NOT lacking, at all.
JUST PUT THEM IN THE FRIDGE FOR 30 MIN BEFORE BAKING, NO NEED TO STAY FOR 18 H
No colour ! Springerle are always white!
Yes! However, I'm a rebel! A German rebel!
