Uncle Odd's "krumkaker"

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup sifted flour (wheat)
• 1 cup butter (melted)
• 1/2 teaspoon cardamom (or to your liking)
• 1/4 cup cold water

Directions

1. 1

   Whisk eggs and sugar untill starting to thicken.

2. 2

   Add the flour, cardamum and melted butter.

3. 3

   Add the cold water in the end.

4. 4

   Stir into a nice smooth batter.

5. 5

   Leave the batter in the fridge for an hour or so. (or a day or two if you don't have the time to do the baking right now).

6. 6

   And here's the big deal - you have to cook them in a "krumkakejern", either one to use on your stove or and electrical one.

7. 7

   Add a tablesppon of batter onto the hot and greased (just the first one) iron. Cook light brown (need some practice) and roll into nice rolls, cool over a small dish to create small "cups" to fill with icecream, whipped cream and berries, or other desserts, or use a "krumkakeruller" which can be bougth in stores overseas (scandinavia), just as the iron. They should be thin and crisp.

   These "cookies" taste wonderful, and in Norway you just have to have them for Christmas. They're a must, and if you've made them into small cups and fill them with wipped cream and cloudberries, and maybe some cloudberry liquor on top, it's the perfect dessert.
