Updated on Dec 29, 2012

This wonderful recipe and green bowl was given to me in the 1960's from my beautiful younger sister. It was the first time I had ever tasted this wonderful delightful fried Swedish cookie. She then walked me through the recipe steps while I made my first batch. Wonderful memories! She is gone now,but not forgotten I will part with her recipe..but never my treasured green bowl! I try to use it every Christmas in her memory. Please enjoy. Nancy...12/29/12
