Dutch spice cookies

This German spekulatius cookie recipe (known as Spekulaas in Dutch-speaking countries) is an ornately shaped holiday classic tradition... but you can make them any time of year! The delicately spiced cookie dough is pressed into carved wooden or cast ceramic molds with festive designs before it is baked, and the imprinted designs remain in the baked cookie.
