Course Dessert
Cuisine German
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 55 cookies

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 150 g sugar
  • vanilla
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 200 g flour

Instructions

  • Beat eggs together with sugar, vanilla and salt until fluffy and creamy.
  • Add flour to the egg-sugar mixture to make an airy, thick batter.
  • Use a piping bag (with a round, approx. Ø 8 mm nozzle) or two teaspoons to pipe small mounds onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper, leaving enough space between the mounds. The sponge dough will spread a little, so that the heaps turn into small round circles.
  • Bake the egg cookies in a preheated oven at 180 °C for about 10 minutes. Remove them from the tray and let them cool.

Notes

  • After whipping the egg-sugar mixture, the sugar should have completely dissolved.
  • Fold the flour very carefully into the beaten egg-sugar mixture.
  • Bake the cookies immediately, as the sponge dough should not rest.
  • Do not bake the egg cookies too long. They should have a light yellow color after baking.
  • Note the detailed tips and tricks for baking the egg cookies at the top of the post.
