Brunkager

Today I tried out my first batch of Brunkager! Brunkager is a Danish cookie eaten at xmas and somehow xmas isnt the same without them;)






I used the recipy of my all time favorite cook: Kille Enna, a Danish cook who just rocks my world! And in danger of being sued I bring the recipy here:

190 g butter, 125 gr. light sirupe and 125 gr. of sugarcane suger - bring it to a boiling point in a pot and leave it to cool to lukewarm, then add 1/2 dl Potaske disolved inn 1/2 dl boiling water. cool off again and then add 400 gr. flour, 15 gr. cinamon, 1 spoonful of cloves, whole, toasted on a pan and blended to powder, 70 gr of chopped almonds and 50 gr. sukat or oranage peel.

Mix the batter well band and roll it to two rolls of dough and leave to cool in refrigiater for at least two hours. Then cut it in thin slices and place on a baking tray, bake in oven at 180 degrees for about 5-6 minutes.

When you take them out of the oven place them to cool on a rack, in order to get crispy. Keep in an airtight container when completely cooled off.
