For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of ground cardamom or white pepper to the spice mixture. If you prefer a softer cookie, bake for a slightly shorter time. Be sure to monitor closely! These cookies are excellent for gifting. Package them in decorative tins or cellophane bags for a festive touch. Store the Pfeffernusse in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crispness.
