I think you might be describing "Specalatius" (spelling?) which is
pronounced "Speckolotsee-us" (gesundheit).  They are really thin,
light in color, and made on an iron press (similar to a waffle iron)
but have a design on it to be impressed on the cookie.  I don't
have the recipe, but I'm almost positive there is a recipe for them
in The Joy of Cooking.  I don't know how good the recipe is, but
you might give it a try.
