PIPARKAKUT - FINNISH GINGER COOKIES



Piparkakut - Finnish Ginger Cookies image

Piparkakuts are a traditional holiday cookie in Finland. They are usually cut into round scallop shapes, but little boys and pigs are the traditional shapes during the holidays. I found this recipe on the internet and I can't wait to give it a try soon! --NOTE-- cooking time includes cooling time and chilling time.

Time 12h30m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups butter (no substitute)
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup dark corn syrup

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon allspice
3 teaspoons orange zest
2 eggs, slightly beaten
2 teaspoons baking soda
5 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Combine butter, sugar, corn syrup and spices in a saucepan.
  • Over low-medium heat, stir ingredients constantly until ingredients look like they are about to boil.
  • Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • Allow sugar mixture to cool to room temperature.
  • Stirring occasionally might help speed up this process.
  • Stir eggs into cooled sugar mixture.
  • Sift flour and baking soda together and add to sugar mixture.
  • Mix well.

  • Bake in preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
  • Cookies can be left plain, or decorated with pipped icing.
  • NOTE: This makes a crisp cookie, if a softer cookie is desired you may substitute brown sugar for the granulated sugar.

Time 1h15m

Yield About 7 dozen medium cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

9 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons molasses
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom, preferably freshly ground
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon finely ground pepper
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
1 egg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
Butter or cooking oil, for greasing cookie sheets
1 egg white
Raw sugar, for decorating

Steps:

  • Heat the butter, sugar, molasses, spices, pepper and orange zest over medium heat, constantly stirring until the sugar dissolves, about 4 to 5 minutes. Pour into a large bowl and cool until tepid, about 20 minutes.
  • Add the egg, salt and baking soda and beat well to combine. Add half the flour and beat until barely combined. Add the remaining flour and beat until barely combined. The dough should be sticky but manageable; if it is too wet, add a little flour. Form into a large ball and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Divide the dough in two. Place one half on a floured work surface, and sprinkle a little flour on top. With a floured rolling pin, roll dough to between 1/16- and 1/18-inch thick. Sprinkle flour on work surface as needed to prevent sticking.
  • Cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Arrange about 1/2 inch apart on a greased cookie sheet. Beat egg white with 1/4 cup water and lightly brush on the cookies. Sprinkle with raw sugar. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until cookies begin to darken around the edges. Let cool one minute before transferring to racks to cool. Gather leftover dough, roll it out again, and continue to cut out and bake the remaining dough.
