UNCLE ODD'S "KRUMKAKER"

Steps:

• Whisk eggs and sugar untill starting to thicken.
• Add the flour, cardamum and melted butter.
• Add the cold water in the end.
• Stir into a nice smooth batter.
• 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).
• 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.
• 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.
