Zimtsterne

== Description ==
These are typical Christmas cookies in Switzerland. I got the recipe while doing an exchange year in Switzerland. They are good anytime of the year though!
== Ingredients ==
* 3 egg whites
* 1 pinch salt
* 250 g powdered sugar
* 1½ tablespoons cinnamon (or a little more, if you want)
* ½ tablespoon lemon juice
* 350 g ground almonds
== Directions ==
# Beat egg whites with salt until stiff.
# Add the powdered sugar and mix.
# Keep 1 dl of the mixture as frosting.
# Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
# Roll the dough out in a ziploc bag, that's cut open (cut the two side seams so the two parts are held together only at the bottom) cut out stars or whatever other shapes you want.
# Bake for 3–5 minutes in a preheated oven at 450°F. 
# When cookies are still warm, dip one side of cookies in frosting.
