Polish Angel Wings Chrusciki
This is a classic polish cookie that my mom and bushia used to make at christmas time. i've found that this is a really hard dough to work with, but it is from the original polish recipe translated into english. these are not really sweet cookies, but they get most of their sweetness from the powdered sugar on the outside.
Steps
Beat eggs until thick.
Add salt slowly while stirring.

You may need more than the flour listed above depending on how humid it is that day.

Roll very thin.
Cut into 1 inch by 4 inch rectangles.
Cut a gash in the middle of the rectangle and pull one end through so it looks like a twist.
