These Oatmeal cookies are old traditional Swedish Christmas cookies. They are delicious served with whipped cream.


This makes about 24 cookies
When serving you put two together with whipped cream inside, so it will make 12 ready to serve cookies.

Ingredients:
75 gr butter
1 dl sugar
1 dl oatmeal
1 dl flour
1,5 tbs milk
1,5 tbs syrup (light)
1 tsp ginger
0,25 baking powder

Directions:
Heat the oven to 200 Celsius Degrees

Place a pan on the stove. Melt the butter in the pan. Turn off the stove and remove the pan. Mix the sugar, oatmeal, flour, milk, syrup, ginger and bakingpowder into the melted butter.

With a tablespoon place small cakes on a baking paper on a baking tray. For one cake take 1/2 tbs batter. Place them with distance from each other on the tray, since they will melt down and float out flat in the oven while baking.

Bake in the  middle of the oven for five minutes or until golden brown. They should look a bit like caramel.

Take out from the oven and let them cool off before you remove them from the baking tray.

You can store them in a cake box or in the freezer. When serving you whip cream and put in the middle of two cakes. Don´t let them sit after putting the cream inside since this will make them soft.

They should be crispy when served.
