Instructions
Combine and mix all ingredients to a medium dough. Break off a small amount of dough (enough to form a rope about the size of a cigar). Cut into 1˝ to 3" pieces. Drop pieces into boiling water one by one. Do not crowd. When they rise to the top, remove and dry on dishtowel for about 1 hour. Cut a slit down the middle of each cookie. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake cookies directly on oven rack (not on a cookie sheet) for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Ice with powdered sugar mixed with water and the juice of\r a lemon. Frost cookies with a pastry brush.\r
