Your most blase guests' taste buds will tingle when they sample
your Christmas Cookie Kringle:
Through a strainer the hard-boiled eggs you force,
using the back of a spoon, of course,
then combine with the raw egg yolk:
That's how it's done by the German folk.
Work in the sugar, the butter, the shortening and when it's combined,
add the flour, cinnamon, vanilla and all of the rind:
now into a ball you roll the dough,
And chill it and roll it to and fro.
When it's 1/8-inch thick you cut it out neat,
use a doughnut cutter and a cookie sheet:
now paint each cookie with unbeaten egg white
And sprinkle with pistachios to add to the delight.
At 350 , 8-10 minutes you bake.
And you'll be proud of the kringle you make.
