Another of my mom's specialties - this makes a very flaky pastry that comes apart in your mouth. Not exactly low-fat, but one can't have everything. Light enough for summer, but rich enough for winter.

Time 1h30m

Yield 2 kringlas

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
1 cup flour
3 eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla or 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. To make the crust, cut the butter into the flour. Sprinkle with water and form into a dough. Shape into two 3" by 12" strips on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • To make the topping, heat the butter and water to a full rolling boil in a saucepan. Remove from the heat and stir in flour and almond extract. Return to low heat and stir vigorously until it forms a ball (about 1 minute). Remove from heat and beat in eggs.
  • Divide the topping in half and spread over crusts. Bake for 1 hour until brown and crispy.
  • While the kringla is baking, make the icing. Sift the powdered sugar. Stir in milk and vanilla until smooth.
  • After the pastries have cooled, top with the icing and let it set. When the icing has set, cut into strips.

The baking time for this kringla was a bit too long. The edges of the pastry were overcooked.

The dough for this kringla was a bit difficult to work with. It was very sticky and hard to roll out.

The almond filling in this kringla was a bit dry. I think I'll add some more butter or milk next time.

This kringla was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
