Top Sites for Waffle Iron Recipes Krumkake  Conical krumkake flavored with cardamon Krumkake or 'Krum kaka' (meaning bent or curved cake, plural krumkaker) is a Norwegian waffle cookie made of flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and cream. Krumkake are traditionally made during the Christmas season. A typical recipe can contain equal parts sugar, butter, flour and potato/cornflour, along with eggs and cream. The sugar and eggs are whipped with melted butter, flour is added, and finally cream. Alternative ingredients are different spices and/or brandy. Additionally, some recipes call for flavoring to be added, such as lemon, vanilla, or hazelnut extract.  Norwegian krumkake (tightly rolled for shipping) from Montevideo, Minnesota next to a Leif landed first magnet and a Swedish dala horse, uffda! A special decorative two-sided iron griddle, similar to a waffle iron, is used to bake the thin round cakes. Older irons are used over the stove, but modern electric irons offer the convenience of nonstick surfaces, automatic timing, and multiple cakes per batch. While hot, the 5-8" krumkake are rolled into small cones around a wooden or plastic cone form. Krumkake can be eaten plain or filled with whipped cream (often multekrem) or other fillings. These cookies are popular not only in Norway but also among Norwegian immigrant descendants in the American Midwest. Krumkaker are traditionally made in preparation for Christmas, along with other Norwegian sweets including Sandbakelse and Rosettes. They offer a sweet dessert after the traditional Christmas Eve dinner of ribs or pinnekjøtt. In Germany, the cookies are commonly filled with sweet stuffings such as raspberry compote or whipped cream. They are also used as a type of ice cream cone.
