- Krumkake
-
- 2 eggs
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
-
- Beat the eggs and sugar together until they turn pale yellow. While
- continuing to beat, slowly add the melted butter. Add and blend in the
- vanilla. Finally, stir in gently the flour, being careful not to
- over-mix.
-
- Heat the krumkake iron over medium heat.
-
- Place one tablesoon of the mixture in the middle of the iron and close
- lid, gently pressing until the batter spreads evenly to the sides.
-
- Cook about 2 minutes on each side until very lightly browned.
-
- Remove from iron and immediately roll around a cone form or the handle
- of a wooden spoon. It will harden to shape very quickly.
-
- To serve, fill with whipped cream.
-
- You may need to experiment with the consistency of the batter, the
- amount used and the cooking times to get it to work right. This is one
- of those recipes that seems to require a goodly amount of "expert
- knowledge" from doing it. Also, for the first few cookies of each batch
- you may want to rub the surface of the iron with a lightly buttered
- sheet of paper towel. After the first few, it is no longer necessary.
-
- Cone forms are sold which are specially designed for rolling krumkake,
- or you can use a cone used for making cream horns, or fashion one out of
- a solid chunk of aluminum foil as I did. The 'real' ones are wood and
- have a knob handle on the base to make them easy to use. They also have
- a depth sufficient to roll the 6-7 inch circle around.
