Krumkake

new Quickutz

This year one of my goals was to learn to make a few of the traditional Norwegian goodies I grew up on. Krumkake required the purchase of a beautiful iron and the passing down of the recipe from Grandma. Krumkake is a crisp, rolled cookie that can be eaten plain or gussied up with some whipped cream and berries or pudding. It is excellent either way!

  6. I love these cookies, my mom used to make them all the time using her Grandmother’s recipe. I may have to see if I can get the recipe and buy the special griddle

  8. If you make them, you *have* to share. Otherwise, it’s not fair to blog about them. That’s teasing.

  12. Here in Sweden we call those cakes rullrån (=rolled wafers) and I just love them. My husband’s grandmother makes the best rullrån in the world!
