QUICK BISCUIT KICHEL
Kichel is a Jewish cookie usually made with eggs, flour, sugar. I found this recipe in the Philadelphia Jewish Exponent in an article about South African Jewish Life. The recipe is a short cut recipe using won-ton wrappers and is very good. Apparently South African Jews use these as an accompanionment to chopped herring(which I do love), but I serve these with coffee or tea as a delicious snack. I am posting the recipe as printed in the paper.

Steps:
- For dough: Preheat oven to 350°F and line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Mix oil, eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt together, using a hand mixer, or by hand in large bowl until combined. Slowly add 1 cup of flour at a time, mixing well after each addition until a smooth dough forms, about 15 minutes. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until dough is no longer sticky, about 2 to 3 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap or an inverted bowl and allow to rest until dough is supple, about 30 minutes. For coating: Sprinkle 1 1⁄2 cups sugar evenly over work surface and roll dough out into a 1⁄4-inch-thick rectangle. Top evenly with remaining sugar. Cut dough into 1- x 2-inch rectangles using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Twist each strip to form a bow tie shape. Place onto prepared baking sheets, 1-inch apart. Bake cookies, 1 rimmed baking sheet at a time, until edges are lightly browned, about 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire rack and let cool completely before serving. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to serve.
