This recipe makes around 30 krumkake

I really like krumkake, they taste sweet and vaguely cinnamon. My mom makes some every year around winter as a tradition. Krumkake is a Norwegian cookie.

Due to how many are made there plenty to give away to friends or family. They take awhile to make not because they’re hard to but just because of the fact you have to wait for them to cook for awhile, but it’s worth it since they’re so good.

Personally, I don’t normally do this, but since they’re tube shaped you can fill them with stuff like whipped cream. I find they can be a tad bit awkward to eat due to their shape.

Rolling the krumkake can be a little stressful since you have to do it quickly so they don’t harden before you can roll them properly.

This was based on my grandma’s recipe, but it really only had the ingredients, and directions on how to make the batter. I had to write out the rest of the steps.
