Krumkake

Directions

In a medium mixing bowl beat eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed about 1 minute.

Add sugar; beat about 3 minutes or until sugar is almost dissolved.

Melt butter; cool slightly.

Stir butter into egg mixture.

Add flour, vanilla or almond extract, and nutmeg; stir just until smooth.

Heat a Krumkake iron on the range-top over medium-low heat.

For a 6-inch iron, spoon about 1 tablespoon of the batter onto the hot, ungreased iron.

Close gently but firmly.

Cook over medium-low heat about 30 seconds or until light golden brown.

Turn iron and cook about 30 seconds more.

Open the iron carefully.

Loosen cookie with a narrow spatula; invert onto a wire rack.

Immediately roll the cookie into a cone or cylinder; using a wooden or metal form.

Let cool around the cone or cylinder until the cookie holds its shape.

Reheat the iron and repeat with remaining batter.

Cool rolled cookies on a wire rack.

If desired, before serving, pipe or fill with whipped cream; top with chopped almonds or chocolate-flavored sprinkles, or serve with preserves if desired.
