Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Beat the butter and sugar together.
Step 2
Once the mixture is smooth, add the eggs, spices, and dry ingredients. Finally, add the flour until the mixture is thick (you may need a little more flour).
Step 3
Grease the baking sheet with butter.
Step 4
Roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.5 cm. Use a rolling pin to transfer the dough to the baking sheet and cut out shapes.
Step 5
Bake for 15 minutes at 345°F in the middle of the oven.
Step 6
When the cookies are dry and firm, remove them and cool on a rack.
Step 7
To decorate, prepare the icing. Whip the egg white with powdered sugar and lemon juice until the mixture forms peaks. If it doesn't rise and you've been whipping for a while, add more powdered sugar. Optionally, you can color the icing with food coloring.
Step 8
Apply the icing to the cookies using a piping bag or spatula. The sugar icing hardens as it cools.
