Krumkake

These cookies cook one at a time in a special iron and have a rather unusual name, but there is nothing unusual about their sweet, delicious taste.

LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat ungreased krumkake iron over medium-high heat on smallest surface unit of electric or gas range (for electric irons, follow manufacturer's directions). Beat all ingredients until smooth. Test iron with a few drops of water; if they skitter around, iron is correct temperature.
  • 2 Lightly brush inside top and bottom of iron with shortening or vegetable oil. Drop 1/2 tablespoon batter onto iron; close gently. Cook about 15 seconds on each side or until light golden brown. Keep iron over heat at all times. Remove cookie with knife. Immediately roll cookie around roller or handle of large wooden spoon. Cool on wire rack.

I made a quarter of this recipe today to test out my new manual krumkake iron. These are so delicious. I would advise rolling the cookie from this recipe around a wooden spoon handle rather than using the traditional cone form as they are very fragile and could use the multi-layering to stiffen the cookie somewhat. They remind of the cookie part of those Pepperidge Farm Piroux (sp?) cookies that are lined with chocolate. Will definately roll them around the spoon handle next time and fill the middle with chocolate. Great flavor and texture; will make again.

My family has enjoyed krumkake for more than 4 generations. Although I do not have an iron, my Mom does, so we enjoy these light cookies every Christmas season.
