Imagine the aroma of freshly baked Krumkake wafting through your home. These cookies are perfect for any occasion, from holiday gatherings to cozy family dinners. So let’s get started!
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until well combined.
- Gradually sift in the flour and mix until smooth. If you’re using cardamom, add it now.
- Preheat your Krumkake iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Lightly grease the iron with butter or non-stick spray if necessary.
- Pour a small amount of batter (about 2 tablespoons) onto the center of the Krumkake iron. Close the iron and cook for about 30-60 seconds, depending on your desired crispness.
- Carefully remove the Krumkake from the iron and immediately shape it around a cone-shaped mold or roll it up. Let it cool in that shape so it retains its form.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the iron as needed.
- Once cooled, you can fill the Krumkake with sweetened whipped cream, berries, or just dust them with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
These Krumkake are not only a treat for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes. Enjoy making them and sharing them with those you love!
