One of the joys of being married into a family of Lutheran Norwegians, is the holiday expectation of Krumkake. I received an iron as part of a wedding present and knew I didn’t have a chance, lol!

EVERY Holiday we make it — sometimes plain, sometimes dusted with sugar, sometimes chocolate… it depends what I think our holiday cookie plate needs.
