Krumkake
(from SallyV’s recipe box)
Store in a loosly covered box…if it’s airtight, the cookies will not stay crisp.

Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 5 T. heavy cream
- 1/2 C. butter, melted
- 1 T. vanilla
- 1 C. sugar
- 3/4 C. all-purpose flour
- 2 t. cornstarch
Directions
-
Heat ungreased krumkake iron over medium-high heat on smallest surface unit of electric or gas range (6-7 minutes).
-
Beat eggs, cream, butter, vanilla, sugar, flour and cornstarch until smooth.
-
Test iron with a few drops of water. If they skitter around, iron is correct temperature. Lightly brush inside top and bottom of iron with shortening or vegetable oil. Drop 1 teaspoon batter onto the middle of iron; close gently.
-
Cook about 15 seconds on each side or until light golden brown. Keep iron over heat at all times. Remove cookie with knife. Immediately roll cookie around a krumkake roller or the handle of large wooden spoon. Cool on wire rack.

NOTE: I always make one and a half recipes. The first few cookies may stick and be dark, but the iron does temper. You will get very tired of counting to 15!
