Zubereitung von Baseler Leckerli Swiss Spice Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, combine honey, sugar, and water. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the honey is melted. Do not boil.
- Transfer the honey mixture to the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with a dough hook. Let cool slightly.
- Add the sifted dry ingredients, almonds, candied orange peel, and lemon zest to the honey mixture.
- Mix on low speed until a heavy, sticky dough forms. Add a spoonful or two of water if needed to bring the dough together. Do not overmix.
- Spread the dough evenly to a 1/2 to 1-inch thickness on the prepared baking sheets, forming three 8x9-inch rectangles.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are a medium brown.
- Remove from oven and immediately brush the tops with the glaze.
- Let cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes.
- Cut into 1x3-inch bars or diamond shapes.
- Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, ice with additional simple sugar glaze (e.g., powdered sugar mixed with a little milk or lemon juice).
- Store in airtight containers with wax paper between layers. Let rest at least 1 week for optimal flavor; longer is even better!
