#krumkake

Made krumkake for the first time. I think it went well.

Krumkaker are Norwegian cookies that my family makes each year during Christmas. They taste amazing and my best friend once ate at least seven in one sitting. You will need a krumkake iron for this recipe, or you can use a flat waffle iron, but the designs will not be as pretty. Pizzelle makers work too. You will also need a wooden cone to shape the cookies. Krumkaker are usually stuffed with cream, berries, jam, or chocolate, but you could also use them as icecream cones during the summer!

Ingredients

♡ 1 cup white sugar

♡ 1/2 cup butter, room temperature

♡ 2 eggs

♡ 1 tsp vanilla or almond extract

♡ 1 cup milk (or milk substitute)

♡ 1 1/2 cups gluten free flour

Instructions

☆ In large bowl, cream together sugar and butter

☆ Add eggs and extracts and beat until fluffy. Then add milk

☆ Slowly stir in flour until everything is properly mixed

☆ Brush a small amount of vegetable oil on the krumkake iron, then heat it to medium heat. The oil should last a long time and does not need to be reapplied often

☆ Put about a tablespoon of batter onto the iron, closer to the backside and middle so it will spead out evenly. Let cook for around a minute. Irons are different so the time and heat might be different for you, use the first few krumkaker as tests to get the optimum temp and cooking time.

☆ When the batter has cooked, remove from iron with a spatula and wrap cookie around cone. It should be soft, but will harden in a few minutes. When cookie hardens, remove cone.
