Ymer is a Danish milk product that was developed in the 1930′s. It’s similar to yogurt and buttermilk and it’s often served as a breakfast, snack or dessert. Unfortunately Ymer cannot be purchased in the US but I find that Greek Yogurt is a great substitute. Ymerdrys is a topping that is sprinkled on top [...]

Citronfromage – Danish Lemon Mousse
Posted in Danish, Dessert, tagged candied lemon zest, Citronfromage, Danish, dansk, dessert, fromage, lemon, mousse on April 16, 2012 | 8 Comments »
Citronfromage is a classic Danish dessert, a familiar old friend to all Danes. It can of be served any time of the year but I associate it with long summer days when the sun sets late in the evening. The mousse is a beautiful pale yellow color and it is filled with air making it [...]

You’re probably all wondering, why does she keep posting recipes with marzipan? Well, all I can say is that marzipan is immensely popular in Denmark and it’s a natural part of baking (and besides….I like it) Mazarinkage is a classic Danish cake found in most bakeries. It’s a sponge cake made with Marzipan which makes [...]

The other day I had the pleasure of meeting Ree Drummond from the Pioneer Woman. I was thrilled when I found out she was doing a book signing at our local book store here in Virginia Beach. Our normally sleepy Books-A-Million was filled with people and the lines were as long, as if you were [...]

Attention all chocolate lovers…this one is for you! These cupcakes are double trouble. The cupcake is super moist with an intense chocolate flavor and the frosting is silky soft with an intoxicating chocolate aroma. Careful not to overbake the cupcakes, you don’t want to loose that perfect moisture. I was taking a cake decorating class and had brought this [...]
Fastelavnsboller – revisited
Posted in Danish, Dessert, Pastry, tagged boller, custard, Danish, dansk, dessert, fastelavn, fastelavnsboller, rolls, yeast on February 13, 2012 | 6 Comments »
Fastelavn (Shrovetide) is right around the corner in Denmark and so this time of year you see these wonderful fresh-baked filled rolls everywhere. I have posted about the Danish Fastelavn tradition before but I think the Fastelavnsboller is totally worth revisiting, especially since they are one of my favorite Danish treats. If your curious to [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve made Ice Cream, and yes I know it’s in the dead of winter, but I just really had a desire to make Ice Cream. I wanted it be a coconut flavor since that is one of Joe’s (my husband) favorite flavors. Then I came across this exotic Coconut with [...]

The Holiday season is upon us and with so many foods to be baked and cooked it is really tempting to use a store-bought pie crust instead of making your own. However, this pie crust is both delicious and quick and easy to make…so why use a store-bought? This Perfect Pie Crust comes out light [...]

We are looooong overdue for a Danish recipe, don’t you think? There are so many recipes that I want to make (Danish and others alike) and simply not enough hours in the day. Maybe if I took a month off from work I could make a dent in my to-do-list. Anyway, I have been planning [...]
