I am 100% of Norwegian ancestry and I have had these at Christmas for as long as I can remember. 

I had really good Norwegian friends years ago (actual immigrants). He,Torkjell, was my boss for several years. I really liked everything his wife Ann tried to feed me whenever I was at their home.

Except for one (1) thing, ........ extremely salty, slimy, pickled Herring. YUCK

And the way they were gulping them down I was sure they were going to taste delicious.

OMG, cogar!  Pickled herring is DELICIOUS!  Lutefisk is another story however... ::)  Lutefisk is cod preserved in lye, yes, lye. That gelatinous mass of fish is not edible but many pay good money to devour it at church dinners around here.

mart...Krumkake is a Norwegian waffle cookie made of flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and cream made on a krumkake iron and then rolled while still warm on a tapered cone.  They look like this...

I will have to look that recipe up. I could sure use it !!  In the south we have a crumbcake that is a coffee cake with a crumb topping. Haven`t made it in a long time though.  Thanks all for educating me on Norwegian food !!

Yum...  I've never had one of those but can think of a lot of ways to enjoy one.  Half melted bowl of rocky road ice cream comes to mind using one of those waffles as my spoon!!  ;D

I make a cream cheese/cool whip combo that would be great in those cones !! Or dip the edges in chocolate let it cool and fill with chocolate cream.  I gotta shut up or go cook !!!
