SWEDISH BUTTER COOKIES
It's impossible to eat just one of these Swedish cookies. Naturally, they're a favorite with my Swedish husband and children-but anyone with a sweet tooth will appreciate this treat. My recipe is "well-traveled" among our friends and neighbors. -Sue Soderland, Elgin, Illinois

SWEDISH COOKIES (BRUNSCRACKERS)
This is a recipe that my husband's nana has made for years. They are the easiest cookies I have ever made. The ingredients were harder to find than it was to make the cookies. They are like potato chips, you cannot eat just one!

SWEDISH DREAM COOKIES
Delicate melt in your mouth almond coconut cookie. Baker's ammonia (ammonium bicarbonate) is also known as hartshorn. It is an old form of leaving that was mainly used before the arrival of baking powder. During baking it releases an unpleasant odor, that does not affect the taste of the cookies. It can be found in drugstores and some specialty baking stores

TRADITIONAL PEPPARKAKOR (SWEDISH SPICE COOKIES)
Traditional Swedish spice cookie; traditionally served on St. Lucia Day (Dec. 13). These are my sisters favorite cookie.:) (Note: you need to mix up the dough a day in advance, cover and let rest overnight). Cardamom & finely chopped candied ginger would make nice additions to these Pepparkakor. The molasses is an essential ingredient in this recipe, you get crispy yet chewy cookies with a lovely rich subtle depth of flavor. Don't skip!

Steps:
- Start the night before by mixing together the heavy cream and sour cream in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth, then cover with cling film and refrigerate.
- When ready to start, set the cream mixture out to room temperature. Next, preheat your oven to 475°F (246°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large bowl cream together the sugar, shortening, and egg yolk.
- Stir in the vanilla extract, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the cream mixture then transfer the wet ingredients into the creamed sugar. Mix until well combined. Add the flour until completely incorporated into the dough, which should be sticky when done. *You can chill the dough for an hour before handling it to make the next step easier if desired.
- Since the dough is sticky, use a well-floured surface to roll the dough out onto. Pull off roughly 1 1/2-inch ball-shaped portions of the dough and roll them in the flour to coat all sides. Then move them to the side of your working surface where there is less flour and roll them out to a rope shape (approximately 8-9 inches long). Shape the rope into an '8' or 'infinity sign' or fold over like a pretzel shape, or you can also shape them into round coils - but these take longer to bake.
- Place each shaped dough piece onto your prepared baking sheets then bake for 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom just begins to turn a light golden color. *Depending on the thickness of the 'ropes', the cooking time can be longer.
- Remove from the oven when done and allow to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

- Easy Homemade Ikea Swedish Meatball Recipe. I was thrilled to see my friend making meatballs at home. If they’re great anywhere, it’s in Sweden! Not only are they a great mixture of pork and beef, but they have potato and onion in the mix and Worcestershire sauce in the gravy.
- Pepparkakor (Swedish Ginger Cookies) Mostly served around the holidays but a pleasant little cookie year-round, this recipe uses dark corn syrup for a depth of flavor you won’t get without it.
- Swedish Cream Recipe. This can only be described as a dream. If creme brulee and panna cotta got together, his would be the result. Want to save this recipe?
- Swedish Apple Pie. This decadent pie is almost like an apple cobbler. Rather than a layer of pastry, you’ll need to make the topping and spoon it over your apple filling.
- Swedish Potato Pancakes (Raggmunk) These can be served as a simple snack or as a side to some chicken or tender meatballs. Either way, they’re crunchy, salty, and irresistible.
- Swedish Rye Bread (Limpa) Much like other European countries, the Swedes like their bread dark and full of rich flavor. This recipe is slightly different, with it being a little sweet.
- Swedish Blueberry Soup. It took me a minute to get my head around this one, but if we can eat gazpacho at lunch, why not blueberry soup for breakfast?
- Swedish Lingonberry Sauce. My first experience with lingonberry sauce was with those meatballs my friend made. She made it herself, from scratch, thank you very much!
- Crispy Hasselback Potatoes with Rosemary and Garlic. If you’re going to try anything on this list, pick this! Originally from a small tavern in Sweden, these potatoes are crispy, tender, and so good.
- Swedish Pancakes. You’ll find these very similar to crepes. Thin, sweet, and delicate, they are a great little snack or dessert with the right toppings.
