I made pfeffernusse cookies for Christmas and while I admit the batter
amounts may have been a tiny amount more than 1 inch across (1 inch was the
recommendation), the recipe indicated, I think, that I should have gotten
more than 100 cookies. It was just over 30. Each finished cookie melted, of
course, and was thus 2 inches in diameter.

I swear, this estimate discrepancy happens a LOT in that book with cookies -
and maybe others as well. Does anyone know more about this? Thanks.

We used to get those from my parent's friends. They were tiny and
rectangular shaped but thick.

I am not too familiar with that cookbook. I was given the book as a gift
when I was an adult. I remember going through it and not being impressed.
Didn't see any joy there. I did try one recipe for macaroni and cheese,
baked in the oven with bread crumbs on top. It was okay, but I preferred the
way I usually made it which was to use whatever I had in the house then eat
it right away, no baking.
