Steps:
- Peel potatoes and place them in a large pot with a large amount of water. Bring water to a boil, and let the potatoes boil until soft. Drain and mash well.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 8 cups mashed potatoes, cream, butter, salt, and sugar. Cover potatoes and refrigerate over night.
- Mix flour into the mashed potatoes and roll the mixture into balls about the size of tennis balls, or smaller depending on preference. Keep balls of dough on plate in the refrigerator.
- Taking one ball out of the refrigerator at a time, roll dough balls out on a floured board. To keep the dough from sticking while rolling it out, it helps to have a rolling pin with a cotton rolling pin covers.
- Fry the lefsa in a grill or in an iron skillet at very high heat. If lefsa brown too much, turn the heat down. After cooking each piece of lefsa place on a dishtowel. Fold towel over lefsa to keep warm. Stack lefsa on top of each other and keep covered to keep from drying out.

Steps:
- Heat cream and shortening until shortening is melted. Cool and then add to riced potatoes. Sift flour, sugar and salt and add to potato mixture. Take a piece of dough as for pie crust (I use a piece a little smaller than a tennis ball), Roll the dough in a circle on a floured cloth rolling as thin as possible.
- Using a lefsa turner (a long thin stick) to lift the rolled lefsa dough, bake on top of a lefsa or pancake griddle that is pre-heated to 425 degrees F. Bake until light brown on both sides. Serve warm or cooled spread with butter and sugar and rolled up.
- Cut into one-fourths, for serving.
NORWEGIAN LEFSE
I was raised on Lefse as a special treat for the holidays. We still make it every holiday season, and this is the best recipe ever. We eat ours with butter and sugar. Note: you will need a potato ricer to prepare this recipe.

NORWEGIAN POTATO AND RYE PANCAKE FLATBREADS - LEFSE
These famous Norwegian Potato Pancakes are more like flatbreads; they are traditionally eaten with butter and cream as a dessert, or sprinkled with cinnamon sugar as an accompaniment to coffee. I think these would be wonderful eaten with fried bacon and mushrooms, for a delicious brunch and breakfast idea. The Norwegians will also eat these with local goat's cheese, snofrisk, or with dried/smoked reindeer meat.

- Turn them over and cook the other side.
- When the Lefse have been cooked - they should be smooth and soft.

- Completely cover the potatoes with water in a large pot and boil them until they are very tender, about 40-50 minutes. Remove them from the water and put them through the potato ricer over a large bowl until all the potatoes have been crushed. If you have a food processor you can just blend them.
- Add the butter, cream, cinnamon, flour, and sugar and stir until completely blended. Now test the dough. Take 1/4 cup of it and roll it into a ball between your hands, cover the rest of the dough and place it in the refrigerator. Roll the ball out on a well-floured surface using a rolling pin with a sleeve, and covering the surface with canvas (this works best if you roll them out onto a large cutting board and just wrap the cutting board in a piece of linen).
- You need to be able to roll the dough out to 1/4 of an inch thick. It helps to take breaks while rolling to reflour the surface under the dough and the rolling pin, and sprinkling flour onto the dough as you roll it out. Flip it with the lefse turner to help keep both sides evenly floured. If you find that this first ball is very brittle and keeps falling apart, you need to add a bit more cream to the dough mixture in the fridge. If it isn't brittle, then the consistency is good. (It should normally be slightly sticky).
- Preheat the griddle to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Make the rest of the dough into 1/4 cup balls and place them all on a plate in the refrigerator, taking each ball out of the fridge as you go. Roll a ball out again until it is a 1/4 inch thick.
