Hi Devon: Just to say I suggest you *don’t* make the recipe found in the book “Cattern Cakes and Lace”. It sounds good, and I had high hopes for it, but the cookies were astoundingly dry. Maybe there’s a misprint and maybe a professional baker could look at the recipe and find the problem; I think they specify too much flour, but I don’t know.
That recipe is one where you roll out the dough, sprinkle with cinnamon & sugar, and roll it up. Makes a nice spiral, which goes with the Catherine Wheel idea.
