When I grew up I loved going to the bakery and get myself a chocolate Americaner. Here in America they are known as half and half cookies. They taste different then what I grew up with. I couldn't find the recipe I used a few years ago, that is asking for Ammonium carbonate . I didn't have much time to look around either, so I opted to use: Mini Americaner . The translation: 100g soft butter at room temperature 100g sugar 1 pack vanilla sugar 1 knife tip of salt 2 eggs 250g all purpose flower 45g corn starch 1 pack of baking powder ( or 1 tsp ) 1-2 tbsp milk. 1 tsp of baking powder Mix the vanilla sugar with the white sugar and salt in a bowl. In a different bowl mix the corn starch with the flower. In a stand mixer add the butter 1 egg and half of the sugar and mix on medium. After 3 minutes start to add 4 tbsp of flower (1 at the time) and mix for another 3-4 minutes. Clean the beater every now and then, so what gets stuck on the beater falls back into the dough. Stop the mix
