List of Ingredients
Easter Cookies
3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup cake flour -- sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup freshly whipped cream – sweet
Recipe
Beat eggs to a stiff froth in a large bowl. Add sugar and beat. Mix flour and baking powder and blend in. Add vanilla and beat for 2 minutes. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased cookie sheet 3 inches apart. Bake at 375-400 until done about 5 minutes.
Remove from oven and roll each cookie while hot, into a horn shape and place seam side down to cool. I find I need to secure with a toothpick at the tight end or base of the "flower". When ready to serve fill the horn with whipped cream and add a sliver of candied orange peel in center to look like flower stamen.
Makes 8 lilies.
