A Favorite German Recipe
For a crispy yet easy to roll krumkake try the following.
    2/3 cup water
    1/2 stick butter (1/4 cup or 4 tbsp.)
    1/2 cup granulated sugar (or slightly more for taste)
    1 cup general purpose flour
    1 egg
    1/2 to 1 tsp. vanilla

    Makes about 15 krumkakes
1. Boil the water.

2. While it is cooling, add 1/2 stick butter to water and stir to melt the butter completely. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar to water while still warm and stir to dissolve. Allow to cool.
3. Add one cup of general purpose flour and 1 egg to the mixture. Mix thoroughly while adding 1/2 to 1 teaspoon vanilla. This mixture will be relatively thin and will produce a thin, crispy krumkake.
4. Using the KrumKake Express™, start with the Color Control Dial at 2-1/2. Use approximately 1-1/2 tablespoons for a full 6" wafer. Spoon the mix onto the heated plates when "Ready" green light is ON.
5. Lock the lid latch. The green light will go OFF in about 30 seconds and the red "Baking" light will come ON.
6. The green light will come ON again in about another 30 seconds. Open the lid of the KrumKake Express™ and inspect the wafer. Bake longer if needed to reach a golden brown color. Readjust the Color Control Dial if necessary to obtain a total bake cycle of about 80 seconds and a golden brown color.
7. Remove the wafer from the KrumKake Express™ and roll quickly (while hot) around the Cone Form.

How to Roll the Krumkake
 

A Favorite Norwegian Recipe
A delightful krumkake, easy to handle and roll into a cone, yet light and crispy.
    2/3 stick butter (5 tbsp.)
    2/3 cup granulated sugar
    2 eggs
    2/3 cup milk
    1 cup general purpose flour

    Makes about 20 krumkakes
1. Melt the butter carefully in a microwave oven or double boiler. Do not overheat.

2. Thoroughly mix the sugar into the butter, stirring well.
3. Add the two eggs and, with a power mixer, blend the mixture until light yellow in color.
4. Add the milk and flour and continue to blend until mixture is smooth. The batter should flow readily but slowly off a measuring spoon for a thin, yet easy to handle krumkake.
5. Any of a variety of flavorants such as vanilla extract (1/2 tsp.), grated lemon rind (1/2 tsp.), almond extract (1/2 tsp.) or ground almonds (1 tbsp.) may be added to vary the flavor.
6. Using the KrumKake Express™, start with the Color Control Dial at 2-1/2. One tablespoon of batter will make a 5" wafer. Lock the lid latch for a thinner and crispier krumkake.
7. Add batter to the plate only when the green "Ready" light is ON. In about 30 seconds, the red "Baking" light will turn ON.
8. When the green light comes ON again, open the lid of the KrumKake Express™ and inspect the krumkake for color.
9. Cook until golden brown and remove promptly.
7. Roll onto the Cone Form quickly while the krumkake is still hot.
