Definition: [FEHF-fuhr-noos] Traditionally served at Christmastime, pfeffernüesse (German for "peppernuts") are very popular in many European countries. Scandinavians call the cookies pepperkaker in Norway, pepparnotter in Sweden and pebernodder in Denmark. These tiny ball-shaped cookies are full of spices such as cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and the ingredient for which they're named--black pepper.
