Kleiners

Four generations of Schroders have been making a batch of Kleiners at Christmas time.  This danish tradition is traced back to TJ's grandfather who made it for his family in keeping with his homeland celebrations.


 Crisco for frying.


The dough is taken out of the refrigerator.


 TJ starts to roll it.


 It has to be thin...


 He cuts the strips.


 Grasshopper loves these cookies...  She lobbies for them every Christmas and likes to roll them.





Snowden and I did the frying. We have a very nice batch of sweetness to enjoy over Winter Break and share.  That is, of course, if our cookie monster in residence doesn't devour them quickly.
