2. As desired                                         green and red sprinkles

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, cinnamon, cream of tartar/baking soda mixture and salt
2. Cut in Anchor Unsalted Butter until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add eggs and lemon peel. Mix well to form a dough
3. On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into fun shapes using your Anchor Cookie Cutter. Place cutouts on ungreased cookie sheets
4. Combine egg white and water. Brush over tops of cookies and sprinkle them with sugar. Bake at 375 degrees (Fahrenheit) until golden brown for 8-10 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool
5. Drizzle with melted chocolate, and top with green and red sprinkles (optional)

Note: if dough is too crumbly, add small amounts of milk to moisten until it holds together and forms a ball
