Have You Tried Making Tool’s ‘Die Eier Von Satan’ Cookies?
Have you tried making Tool’s “Die Eier von Satan” cookies?
Most Tool followers might already know that the music, which is from their 1996 album Ænima, is a hash cookie recipe in German. The title “Die Eier von Satan” interprets to “The Eggs of Satan” (or “The Balls of Satan,” relying on which supply you utilize).
And but, the recipe itself requires no eggs. But because it requires shaping them into balls (and because it was penned by Tool), “The Balls of Satan” makes a bit extra sense.
See the lyrics translated [via Google Translate] beneath.
Tool, ‘Die Eier von Satan’ Lyrics (English Translation)
The balls of Satan
Half a cup of powdered sugar
1 / 4 teaspoon of salt
A pinch of Turkish cannabis
Half a pound of butter
A teaspoon of vanilla sugar
Half a pound of flour
150 grams of floor nuts
A bit of additional powdered sugar
And no eggs
Place in a bowl
Stir in butter, add floor nuts and knead the dough
Form eyeball-sized items of dough
Roll within the powdered sugar and say the magic phrases
Simsalabimbamba Saladu Saladim
Place on a greased baking tray and bake at 200 levels for quarter-hour
And no eggs
The life
Bake at 200 levels for quarter-hour
And no eggs
Tool, ‘Die Eier von Satan’
