Krumkake Tradition

Every year my mom makes Krumkake.  I love to help. I don't have my own Krumkake iron yet, but that's okay because I'm still live close, so I can make them with my mother!




Krumkake is is a Norwegian waffle cookie made of flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and cream. Krumkake are traditionally made during the Christmas season. A special decorative two-sided iron griddle, similar to a waffle iron, is used to bake the thin round cakes. While hot, krumkake are rolled into small cones around a wooden or plastic cone form. Krumkake can be eaten plain or filled with whipped cream  or other fillings. *

You have to eat Krumkake with two hands as it is delicate and crumbles, but it is delicious!

Merry Christmas!
