Time 1h5m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 eggs
1/4 cup superfine baker's sugar
Optional: 1 tablespoon cognac or brandy
3 tablespoons butter (melted)
1/3 cup heavy cream ( whipped into stiff peaks)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cardamom (freshly ground)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
For frying: 6 cups vegetable or canola oil
Garnish: vanilla sugar or powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Cream together eggs, sugar, and brandy, if using.
  • Stir in melted butter.
  • Gently fold whipped cream into batter.
  • Sift together flour, cardamom, baking powder, and salt.
  • With a light hand, mix dry ingredients into batter to form a soft dough. You want to avoid handling dough too much. Otherwise, cookies will end up tough.
  • Chill dough, covered, for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Roll chilled dough out on a floured board to a thickness of 1/8 inch.
  • Using a fattigman cutter or a pastry cutter, cut dough into diamond shapes about 1 1/4-inch wide by 3 1/2 inches long. If you're using a pastry cutter, cut dough first into 1 1/4-inch strips and then cut across these diagonally to form diamonds.
  • Use a knife to cut a 1/2-inch slash in the middle of each diamond.
  • Twist one corner of each diamond up through center slash to make a knot.
  • Heat 2 inches of oil in the bottom of a heavy pot to 375 F.
  • Drop in pastry knots and fry until golden brown, turning occasionally.
  • Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle cookies with vanilla sugar or confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

FATTIGMANN



Fattigmann image

This is in response to Carol's request for what she called 'Futimonbuckles' but in Norwegian - Fattigmann Bakkels would sound the way she spelled it. This is a very old recipe that dates back over a 100 years and actually means 'Poor Man's Cakes'.

Time 1h

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 egg
3 egg yolks
¼ cup heavy cream
4 teaspoons white sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
4 cups lard for frying

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat egg and yolks together. Stir in the cream, sugar, melted butter and cardamom. Mix in enough of the flour to make a soft but manageable dough. Handle the dough as little as possible or cookies will be tough.
  • Heat oil in deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). On a floured cloth, roll the dough out to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 2x2 inch diamond shapes.
  • Fry in hot lard until lightly browned. Drain on paper and dust with confectioners' sugar when cool. The cookies should be uniform in size and thickness and shouldn't be fried too dark or too light.

FATTIGMAN



Fattigman image

I would help my sister-in-law make these, in November for the "Christmas Fair" event at her church. Scandinavian food was featured at this half day event, along with baked goods and handmade items. She did not have the cutter, so we just cut them into diamond shapes. She used an electric skillet when frying the fattigman. I don't know how many this makes and I did not add the chill time for the dough. So simple, yet very tasty.

Time 30m

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 egg yolks
5 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons cream
1 tablespoon cognac
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
1 egg white
1 1/2 cups flour

Steps:

  • Beat together egg yolks and sugar.
  • Whisk in cream.
  • Stir in cognac and spices.
  • Beat egg white until it's stiff and carefully stir into other ingredients.
  • Mix in a little more than half of the flour.
  • Let dough stand, covered and in a cool place, overnight.
  • Use the remaining flour (as little as possible) for rolling out the dough; the less flour you use, the more tender the fattigman will be.
  • Roll the dough out a little at a time and as thinly as possible.
  • Use a fattigmann cutter to cut out diamond shapes.
  • Make a small diagonal cut in the center of each diamond, and "thread" one point of the diamond through the cut.
  • Heat lard to 350º F.
  • Fry fattigman until golden brown.
  • You must flip the fattigman to brown both sides.
  • A chop sticks works great for this.
  • Drain on paper towels.
  • Best when 2 people work on these, one cutting/flipping and the other flipping in the hot oil.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 84 Fattigmann, 10-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 teaspoons granulated sugar
2 cups light cream

sugar, for sprinkling (confectioners or granulated)

  • Chill. Roll out dough as thin as possible and cut into diamond shapes with knife or fluted pastry wheel. Make a slit in center of each diamond and pull the tip end of diamond through slit as far as it will go.
  • Drop into hot oil or shortening (350 F). Fry like doughnuts, but only until very lightly browned. They cook almost as fast as they are put into the hot shortening, so they must be turned and taken out quickly. Drain on paper and sprinkle with sugar.
