These are a German Christmas Cookie. My husband had this recipe when I met him & I have been making them for about 30 years now. They are a small, hard cookie & are great! You form these into rolls about as big around as a dime & chill, then slice thin & bake. I usually make about 1000 of these to put in Christmas goodies boxes.
