Crum-Kaker (Krumkake)

Ingredients

• ½ cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup flour
• 2 tbsp potato flour
• ¾ cup light cream
• ½ cup butter, melted
• ½ tsp cardamom

Method

1. Beat the eggs and sugar together until light. Stir in the flour and potato flour, then the light cream, melted butter and cardamom to make a smooth batter.
2. Heat a krumkake iron over medium heat. Drop a spoonful of batter onto the iron, close and bake until lightly golden, about 30 seconds per side.
3. Remove the thin, warm cookie with a spatula and quickly roll it around a wooden cone (or shape into a cup); let cool until crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter.
