Ancient Egyptian
for
"Cerebrum"

Karen's Secret Ingredients:

1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 tbsp butter
4 tbsp brown sugar
1 cup honey
3 tsp ground cardamom
3 tsp cinnamon
3 tsp ginger
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cloves
3 tsp grated Lemon Peel
1 tsp grated Orange peel
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
5 1/2 cups bread flour
1/2 tsp salt
4 tbsp sour cream
frosting (powdered sugar/confectioner's sugar and water)
Poppy Seeds

How to Prepare:

STEP 1: Heat the honey in a medium saucepan until it bubbles around the edges. Remove from heat and add: SUGARS, PEELS, SPICES and EGGS.

STEP 2: Measure the flour, salt and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the honey mixture alternately with sour cream. Knead the dough for 5 minutes and roll into a ball! Let rest for about 20 minutes.

STEP 3: Heat oven to 375°F. Roll 1/4 dough into ropes of about a pencil's width. Cut 100 stem pieces and smooth the ends. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for about 7 minutes.

STEP 4: Roll 100 balls from the remaining dough. Make an indentation in each ball (I use the rounded handle of a wooden spoon). Bake the indented side down for 10-12 minutes.

STEP 5: With a small knife, enlarge the holes in the baked caps ( to accommodate the stems). Dip the stems in thickened frosting and insert one end of the stem into the caps. Invert and dry (stem side up)

Step 6: Dip the caps into a thinner frosting and sprinkle with poppy seeds! Let dry on their sides on foil.... then ENJOY!
