Best 5 Norske Kroner Norwegian Crowns Cookies Recipes

KRINGLA COOKIES

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine sugar, egg, and sour cream.
• In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Add the flour mixture to the cream mixture and combine completely. Dough will be a little sticky.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Divide dough in half and return 1/2 to refrigerator.
• On a floured surface, form dough into a 18" long roll with your hands.
• Cut off a narrow (1/2" more or less) slice of dough. Roll lightly with hands on lightly floured board into a pencil width strip about 7-8" long.
• Create a figure 8 and pinch the ends together to fasten securely.
• Place on lightly greased baking sheet or one topped with a silicone baking mat. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Bake 8-9 minutes or until just barely lightly golden.

NORSKE KRONER - NORWEGIAN CROWNS COOKIES

Steps:

• Mash hard cooked egg yolks very finely; cream with uncooked egg yolks, salt and sugar.
• Add butter and flour alternately, a little at a time.
• Cover and chill until stiff.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Roll dough into strips 1/2" in diameter and about 5" long.
• Shape into rings, crossing the ends.
• Dip in egg white, then in sugar.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.

NORWEGIAN BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt together. Add the butter and rub in with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in all the icing sugar and the vanilla sugar, then add the whole egg and mix until just combined, but be careful not to overmix.
• Transfer the dough to a food bag and put in the fridge to chill for about 1 hr.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roll the chilled dough into about 40 even balls (around 15g each). Arrange the dough balls over two baking sheets lined with baking parchment, leaving space between each for spreading. Using the back of a fork, press the balls down gently in the middle, so they spread to a diameter of about 3cm (they will spread more as they bake). If you prefer flat cookies, use the bottom of a glass.
• Brush the cookies with the beaten egg white and sprinkle over the pearl sugar or almonds. Bake for 10 mins, or until just cooked through (the cookies should not be fully browned, just lightly golden at the edges). Remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

NORWEGIAN CROWNS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Press the hard cooked egg yolks through a sieve, into a mixing bowl.
• Add the sugar, salt and uncooked egg yolks, and beat thoroughly with mixer.
• Add the butter and flour alternately in small amounts, mixing in after each addition.
• Cover and chill until stiff.
• Roll the dough into ropes 1/4 inch in diameter and 5 inches long.
• Form rings by crossing the ends and pressing slightly.
• Dip, first into egg white, and then into the sugar, and place on cookie sheets with some space between them (the book does not say whether to grease the sheets or not, but I would do so, if not using silpat or parchment).
• Bake at 400 degrees F for 8 to 10 minutes, but check slightly earlier to make sure they aren't browning too fast.
• Remove from sheets and cool on racks.
