Lebkuchen

submitted by Hazel

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped almonds
3/4 cup grated almonds
2 Tbsp candied lemon peel, chopped
gated peel of 1 lemon
2 pinches cinnamon
1 pinch ground cloves
1 pinch cardamom
16-20 thin wafers (oblaten)
chocolate or sugar frosting

Beat the eggs and sugar until foamy. Add flour, almonds, candied peel, lemon peel and spices,
mix thoroughly. Spread dough less than 1/4" (1/2cm) onto thin wafers. Bake in a pre-heated 345F
/ 175C oven for about 20 mins. Cool and add either chocolate or sugar frosting. Note:
gingerbread is rather hard at first, put in a tin for a few weeks (as if I would wait that
long!).
