DANISH AEBLESKIEVERS

DANISH AEBLESKIVERS
Judi (Grandma Nelson) got this recipe from someone at the Scandinavian Festival when she bought the aebleskiver pan for us.  It is a really good recipe.  We hadn't made them for a really long time.  We made them and the kids loved them.  Our favorite was with butter and strawberry jam.  Makes about 42 large.

4 eggs, separated
---
2 T sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 c buttermilk
---
2 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp cardamom
---
shortening or butter
applesauce

Beat egg yolks.  Add sugar, salt and milk.  Then flour soda, baking powder and cardamom.  Last fol in stiffly beaten egg whites.  Place a small amount of fat in each depression (I used shortening) of Aebleskiver pan and fill 2/3 full of dough (big scoop works well). Place a small teaspoonful of applesauce (optional) on top of dough, then barely cover applesauce with a few drops of dough.  Cook until bubbly.  Turn carefully with darning needle and finish baking on other side.  Serve with butter, maple syrup, jam or brown sugar.
