Personal Notes:
Bertl's recipe from Germany, Gerti‘s sister-in-law.
Oblaten is a wafer similar to the Host used for Communion in the Church. It is not readily available. It can be found sometimes in specialty stores. The German store where I had purchased them for many years has gone out of business. I now use parchment paper to keep them from sticking to the pan. But it is not the same. Some of the flavor and authenticy is lacking when the wafer is not attached to the bottom of the cookie.
