Ingredients

How to make it

  • Using a wire whisk, blend the sugar with the butter, then whisk in beaten eggs.
  • Slowly whisk in the whipping cream.
  • Add flour and all of the remaining dry ingredients and extract, whisking together until well blended.
  • The mixture is the consistency of very thick pancake batter.
  • Drop batter by teaspoonful onto preheated KrumKake iron and cook about 30 seconds, or until cookie is just lightly golden brown.
  • Remove cookie from iron and immediately roll around krumkake cone to shape.
  • Cool on waxed paper and store in air-tight container (I prefer glass over plastic for storing these - seems to keep them crispier).

    This looks much easier than doing it with my old fashioned cast iron pan on the stove. I am sure it is a lot less messy, too.
    My mom has an electric one, but she lives 3000 miles away from me.

    Being a good Norwegian I can't have a holiday with out these. I made these cookies for the first time in September. Boy was that fun. A fun way to change the flavor a little is by changing what kind of extract you use. I prefer the orginal but hazelnut is good as well.

    Josh's brother loved these - I had to send some home with him. He was planning on filling them with some ice cream or something sweet. These really are good! :-)

    Thank you, everyone, for your comments - I have to give my youngest daughter credit this time...I told her it was time the "krumkake-making art" be passed down to the next generation and SHE made these today!!! Her grandma (at 89 years of age) is SO proud of her - she did a fantastic job as a first-time krumkake "baker and roller"...a tradition has been passed down - an ethnic recipe carried on...my holiday is now complete! Thank you again for your nice comments on the recipe. Now you know the secret of my "foodie" name.

    Lutefiske, Lutefiske, Leftsa, Leftsa, Merry Christmas Ya sure, you betcha...Those look PERFECT...I have my moms old iron. I've never seen a 2 banger like yours. These are so delish but they take forever and a day to make. No wonder they are such a treat.
    Merry Christmas
