Those look like my kind of cookie! Mmmmm....❤❤❤

[@MyHeartForBio]

When you store them you should put a slice of apple with them in their box, this keeps them soft! Greetings from Germany

[@Keefcooks]

Lol, they didn't last long enough to go hard!

Christmas would not be special without special treats. ❤

[@profrumpo]

Very nice thanks for this, I wondered how these were made. I buy far too many of them from Lidl at this time of year and they are delicious. See also the Nuremburger version. Compliments of the season to you and Mrs KC🎍

[@Bafflees]

I'm German myself but never made these before, somehow. But this video might be what I needed to try it out soon. Love the cozy atmosphere - have a nice christmas season!

Having health issues lately so just in case I don't see another Keef video before Christmas I'll wish you and Mrs Keef a very merry Christmas and all the best in 2025 here. Our Canada Post has been striking for weeks so no cards were going or coming this year, but thank goodness for technology, we aren't completely cut off. 🥴 Blessings Keef, thanks for all the goodies. 🤗🎄🇨🇦🎄

Merry Christmas!

Had the hat been bigger I would have thought I'd seen Santa 😄 Happy Xrissy!

[@sanseijedi]

Forgive the addendum; getting right forgetful. At Christmas Eve, I told my boys (now 28 & 31! Good grief) that Santa gets lots of cookies & milk left for him. The canny choice would be homemade shortbread and a wee dram. So over the years,first their mother kindly baked. Then I took over the task. And finally the eldest learned how to bake. I did my part to ensure Santa emptied the glass. Cheers!

Keef, HAPPY CHRISTMAS, to you and everyone watching. Just an observation: you should have cracked and separated the egg yolks into your main mixing bowl right at the start, then added the flour and butter, sugar, spices, etc. Using the two smaller bowls wasted so much of the egg yolks, and you created an unnecessary washing-up job for yourself 😅. Anyhow, yummy Christmas recipe 😋. Thank you.

[@CricketsBay]

Adding the butter to the flour and stuff doesn't work so great if the eggs go in the big bowl first.

[@rickbear7249]

​@CricketsBay I've never had a problem with ignoring the mixing order of recipes. Just melt the butter before you begin. Alternatively, crack and separate your egg yolks into your smallest bowl, then completely clean the bowl of egg yolk by putting a small amount of your mixed ingredients into the small bowl to ensure none is wasted on the side of the bowl. I hate seeing the amount of food waste when people use multiple prescription bowls.

To many critics , serious people!! He trying to share his recipe with you ,

@Ingrid-b5z ye gids, we're just sharing experiences. What's with the "critics"? We all love our Keef. Happy Christmas one and all 🎅

[@dirtyunclehubert]

boy! am i surprised to hear the pronounciation to be almost PERFECT! im always displeased as a german when english native speakers butcher our trad-dishes names. for starters "eu" is not "u", its "oi" as in "shtroisall-koo-han". or "ie" its not "i", its "e". some of them can say "wiener schnitzel" right and then butcher other "ie" names, but some of them say actually "whiner schnitzel". no. "ie" = "e" sound. i will benevolently forgive the "ch" turning into a "k". in times of google translate, i think, one CAN make the effort to at least hear how its pronounced, and that goes for anyone everywhere. anyhow....gotta go to the supermarket soon to fill myself up with LAYB-KOO-HEN. yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
