FATTIGMANN
This is in response to Carol's request for what she called 'Futimonbuckles' but in Norwegian - Fattigmann Bakkels would sound the way she spelled it. This is a very old recipe that dates back over a 100 years and actually means 'Poor Man's Cakes'.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat egg and yolks together. Stir in the cream, sugar, melted butter and cardamom. Mix in enough of the flour to make a soft but manageable dough. Handle the dough as little as possible or cookies will be tough.
- Heat oil in deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). On a floured cloth, roll the dough out to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 2x2 inch diamond shapes.
- Fry in hot lard until lightly browned. Drain on paper and dust with confectioners' sugar when cool. The cookies should be uniform in size and thickness and shouldn't be fried too dark or too light.

FATTIGMAN COOKIES
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Cream together eggs, sugar, and brandy, if using.
- Stir in melted butter.
- Gently fold whipped cream into batter.
- Sift together flour, cardamom, baking powder, and salt.
- With a light hand, mix dry ingredients into batter to form a soft dough. You want to avoid handling dough too much. Otherwise, cookies will end up tough.
- Chill dough, covered, for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- Roll chilled dough out on a floured board to a thickness of 1/8 inch.
- Using a fattigman cutter or a pastry cutter, cut dough into diamond shapes about 1 1/4-inch wide by 3 1/2 inches long. If you're using a pastry cutter, cut dough first into 1 1/4-inch strips and then cut across these diagonally to form diamonds.
- Use a knife to cut a 1/2-inch slash in the middle of each diamond.
- Twist one corner of each diamond up through center slash to make a knot.
- Heat 2 inches of oil in the bottom of a heavy pot to 375 F.
- Drop in pastry knots and fry until golden brown, turning occasionally.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle cookies with vanilla sugar or confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

POOR MAN'S COOKIES
In the 1930s, producers of a popular radio program called Jake and Lena invited listeners to write in for this recipe. My mother changed the name from Jake and Lena Cookies to Poor Man's Cookies because they contained no eggs, milk or nuts. Despite the name, the cookies are rich in taste!
