For high altitude, the best baking cookbook ever is PIE IN THE SKY by Susan G. Purdy. She explains how and why stuff works and fails with descriptions of how to modify and test your favorite recipes. Then she gives variations of each recipe for sea level, 3,000, 5,000, 7,000, and 10,000 feet.
I can get you a lot of recipes if you want to :) I will have to ask my mum for recipies. Do you maybe have a favorite?
Another one:
Linzerradeln (on the right side in the picture; Vanille Kipferl in the middle)
300g flour
225g butter
100g ground almonds
125g powdered sugar
1 package vanilla sugar
a pinch of salt
Knead everything together (if it is too dry, add a Tablespoon of milk).
You need a bigger round cookie cutter and a smaller one for the hole in the middle - cut all the cookies with the bigger cookie cutter and use the smaller one on half of them.
Bake about 10 minutes (350°F) until light brown, let them cool.
Spread jam (any kind you like - I like raspberry or strawberry) on the cookies without hole, put one cookie with hole on top and coat with powdered sugar.
thank you Susan :)
I'm going to try the kipferl today. I spoke to my mom and she said that the one I remember is kipferl, but she was too lazy to make the horn shape, so she made them into balls!
I'm going to be busy baking today!
When we made the Kipferl last yearsome wouldn't stay in a nice shape, so we ended up making some Vanilla-Cubes too ;)
I hope yours turn out well :)
