DRöMMAR - TRADITIONAL SWEDISH DREAM COOKIES

Steps:

• To make dream cookies: in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, beat sugar, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy.
• Add the canola oil slowly while mixing with the mixer.
• Mix flour and baking powder in separate bowl.
• Stir in flour mixture by hand to form a smooth dough.
• Place the dough in refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 300 F (150°C).
• Roll dream cookie dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until the dream cookies are lightly browned with cracks on the surface.
• Note: Do not open the oven until cookies are done!

DROMMAR

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place butter in a large, heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat without stirring, about 15 minutes, or until butter becomes a light tan color. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool in a very cool place so butter can become solid again. I will put it out on the covered back porch or inside of the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, checking often until it solidifies.
• Break up the hardened brown butter with a wooden spoon or spatula.
• In a separate bowl add sugar, flour, baking powder, and cardamom. Mix well and add the browned butter, stirring well with a pastry blender to combine all ingredients. Add vanilla and almond extract.
• NOTE: The dough will be very, very granular. Initially, it will feel like it will not combine but it always does. Scoop enough dough into your hands to form a 1 inch ball and roll it around, allowing the heat from your hands to melt the butter. The dough feels gritty and when each ball is done, it will hold together beautifully and feel less gritty.
• Shape dough into 1" balls. Place each ball 1" apart from other cookies on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Top each with an almond; press down slightly so it lays flat on ball.
• NOTE: If you can not find whole almonds without their skin, place almonds in a small deep pan or bowl that is heat proof. Boil enough water in a kettle to cover almonds; allow to sit for 3-5 minutes. Drain off the water and the almonds slip out of their skin very easily. Just pinch the almond between two fingers and out pops the clean almond.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Slide parchment paper with cookies attached to a flat surface to cool. ALLOW COOKIES TO COOL ON THE PARCHMENT UNTIL COMPLETELY COLD! They fall apart if taken off too soon! (I allow them a good hour to sit on the parchment paper and then move them to a rack.).
