These are savoury little biscuits/cookies with onion and bacon. They taste best fresh out of the oven, but they keep well in a closed container and are a very practical and well-liked party snack.
Here goes:
Ingredients:
125g cold butter (4,4 oz)
250g flour (8,8 oz)
1 egg
1 pinch of salt
1 onion
100g bacon (3,5 oz)
1 pinch of nutmeg
1 egg yolk (or stirred egg)
Preparation:
Knead butter, flour, egg and salt into dough and let it cool in the fridge for half an hour.
Peel and chop onion into tiny bits and do the same to the bacon. Fry both a bit. Then drain them in a sieve or a towel and let them cool.
Knead the onion-bacon mixture into the dough with the nutmeg and form about 4cm (1,6") thick rolls of it. Wrap them in tin foil and leave them in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Turn on the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 F), cut dough penises into slices and place on the parchmented (or not) baking tray, then brush the egg yolk (or stirred egg) on the little buggers and shove everything into the oven. It'll take about 15 minutes for them to become awesome.
Enjoy and serve at parties.

Tips:
Experiment with additional spices like paprika, garlic or chili.
Experiment without bacon or onion, with different meats or vegetables, cheese, whatever you can come up with.
Experiment with different kinds of flour; white, full grain, rye, spelt...
