Norwegian Almond Sticks Recipes

Steps:

• Beat together eggs and sugar and blend in melted butter.
• Gradually stir in sifted flour and baking powder.
• Mix well.
• Roll out thin on floured board and cut into narrow finger length strips.
• Place on lightly greased and floured cookie sheets.
• Brush with unbeaten egg white and dot with chopped almonds.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 8-10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F In a large bowl cream the butter, beat in the sugar, a little at a time, the vanilla, and the almond extract, and beat the mixture until it is light and fluffy.
• Add the egg and combine the mixture well.
• Add the flour mixture and combine the dough well.
• Form the dough into walnut-size balls and arrange the balls 3 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Either flatten with the bottom of a glass or take a fork and using the back flatten the balls to approximately 1/2 inch to 1/3 inch thick, making a crosshatch design (like you see on peanut butter cookies). Sprinkle with colored sugar.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are barely golden around the edges, and transfer them with a spatula to racks to cool. Store the cookies in airtight containers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Spray pan with cooking spray/Pam and flour.
• Beat sugar, egg, extract, and milk well. Add flour and baking powder. Add butter.
• Bake for 40-50 minutes. Edges must be golden brown.

Steps:

• Beat the egg whites until stiff, set aside.
• Mix the cornstarch with ¼ cup of milk to make a smooth paste, then beat in the egg yolks.
• Combine the remaining milk, cream, sugar and almonds in a saucepan and bring up to boiling point; remove pan from the heat and stir in the cornstarch mixture.
• Return to the heat and cook for 5 minutes on a low heat, stirring constantly.
• Remove pan from heat and stir in rum; allow to cool slightly before next step.
• Using a metal spoon, fold in the beaten egg whites; pour dessert into a serving dish and chill.
• SPECIAL NOTE: This dessert contains uncooked egg whites and therefore may not be suitable for some people e.g. pregnant women or the infirm.
