5 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
4 eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
Glaze
2 cup confectioner’s sugar, sifted
1/4 cup cream
1 tsp. lemon juice
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar and baking powder.
Mix with a wooden spoon and make a well in the center.
In a small bowl, beat eggs just enough to combine. Stir in milk and vanilla.
Pour wet ingredients into the well made in the dry ingredients.
Beat with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest 15 minutes.
Divide dough into 5 pieces.
On a floured work surface, roll each piece into a 1/2-inch-thick rope.
Cut into 3-inch lengths and twist each into a loose knot or spiral, tucking the ends at the center.
Bake on a baking sheet for 12-15 minutes until dry and still pale in color.
Let the cookies partially cool.
Making the glaze
In a medium bowl, combine confectioner’s sugar, cream and lemon juice,
Beat with a fork until sugar dissolves and everything is thoroughly blended.
Dip the tops of the warm cookies into the sugar glaze.
Set on a cookie sheet to dry before serving.
