A traditional German cookie, pfeffernusse, or "peppernuts," get their name from a stiff dose of black pepper in the dough. Make them small so you can pop them in your mouth one at a time. This recipe makes about 4 dozen.

on 1/5/2006 My grandmother would shape the dough into 1-1/2 inch logs and then wrap them in plastic before placing them in the refrigerator or freezer (preferably the freezer).
Then using a kitchen shears, she would cut the dough into 3/4-1 inch pieces and place on a cookie sheet and bake.
