Delicious filled cookies. The recipe calls for a liqueur called Swedish Arrack Punsch, but I usually use amaretto as it is easier to find and tastes delicious.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons heavy cream
white sugar for dusting
½ cup butter, softened
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons Swedish arrack punsch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a bowl, cream together 1 cup butter and the flour until smooth and creamy. Stir in heavy cream. Scrape dough into a ball.
  • Sprinkle the white sugar on a cutting board. Roll out the dough to about a 1/4-inch thickness on the sugared surface. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut dough into 24 circles. Using the rolling pin, roll each circle into a slightly oval shape. Place cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart.

  • To assemble, spread about a rounded teaspoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie and place another cookie, bottom side down, on the filling to form a sandwich. Repeat with the rest of the cookies.

SWEDISH CRISP WAFFLES (FRASVAFFLOR)



Swedish Crisp Waffles (Frasvafflor) image

Waffles are a very popular street food and coffee shop item in Sweden. We also eat them specifically on the Feast of the Annunciation because "Vårfrudagen" (Lady Day in Swedish) sounded a lot like "våffeldagen", thus became Waffle Day! These are a lot crisper and lighter than American and Belgian waffles and contain no eggs. Serve immediately with whipped cream and fresh fruit or jam.
