Some years ago, I did a German feast for a coronation. One of the
recipes was for a kind of cookie. It was essentially pie dough cut
into shapes and sprinkled with sugar, then baked. I remember the
recipe specifying that the cakes could be cut like eagles or hearts or
whatever one pleased. I don't think the "how" of cutting the shapes
was mentioned in the recipe; I used modern cookie cutters, for
convenience.
No clue as to the source, except that it was pre-1600, German, and had
been translated into English.
