Take ¾ glass yolks, ¾ glass cream, ¼ glass yeast mixture, ⅛ pound (¼ glass) sugar, 3–4 crushed bitter almonds and enough flour to make a dough as stiff as for rusks. Knead thoroughly.
Pour in about ¼ glass butter and leave in warmth. After rising, roll thinly and place on a buttered baking sheet. Brush with egg, sprinkle with almonds and currants, prick in several places with a straw and bake.
