NORWEGIAN GOLD CAKE (OR CUPCAKES) WITH SOUR CREAM GANACHE
These Norwegian Gold cupcakes (or cake!) with sour cream ganache frosting have been in our family since I can remember. They're my go-to for my own birthday. Makes one cake or 20 cupcakes.

Steps:
- Have all ingredients at room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 325° F for cake or 375° F for cupcakes. Grease the bottom of a 10-inch tube or bundt pan, or line two cupcake pans with a total of 20 paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle, beat butter and sifted flour together for five minutes on medium speed.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition to incorporate.
- Add sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla and almond extracts. Beat for two minutes more.
- Scoop batter into pan(s). For a cake, bake for about 55 minutes, until golden and beginning to pull away slightly from the sides of the pan. (Start checking at 50 minutes). For cupcakes, bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Cool in pan for 10 minutes and then completely on a rack before frosting.
- When ready to frost cake or cupcakes, heat chocolate in a double-boiler or in the microwave in bursts until just melted.
- Stir until smooth, then stir in sour cream and salt.
- If you would like to pour the icing over a bundt cake rather than spreading it, you can stir in some milk a few tablespoons at a time until it reaches the consistency you like.
- Spread onto completely cooled cake or cupcakes and top with sprinkles or other decorations if you like. Frosting will set over time.

NORWEGIAN CREAM CAKE (BLOTKAKE)
Bløtkake is a celebratory Norwegian layer cake that's decorated with whipped cream and fresh berries. I first had it at a Syttende Mai (Norwegian Constitution Day) party and have also had it at my husband's family's Christmas parties. This recipe is based on his family's recipe and was transcribed from a scribbley old notecard.

Steps:
- Set an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- To make the cake: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, beat together the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, if needed. Beat in the water. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Gradually sift in the flour and baking powder and fold together with a rubber spatula until just combined. Transfer to the cake pan and bake until the center springs back when you poke it; 1 hour to1 hour and15 minutes. Cool in the pan.
- To assemble the cake: Once the cake is cooled, slice in half crosswise. Place the bottom of the cake cut-side up on a cake round or directly onto a cake stand or serving platter. Spread whipped cream on top and dot with a layer of sugared cranberries. Place the remaining half of the cake on top, cut-side down. Spread the whipped cream on the top and sides of the cake to cover. Decorate the top of the cake with remaining cranberries and a few sprigs of rosemary.
- In a large mixing bowl with a hand-mixer, or in the bowl of stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla to medium-stiff peaks.
- Just before assembling the cake, combine cranberries and sugar in a bowl and toss to coat.
NORWEGIAN CARDAMOM CAKE
Serve this with coffee or tea. As per Dreamer's suggestion in her review, I have changed the amount of vanilla wafers needed. Crush enough wafers to have enough crumbs to coat your pan.

BLOTKAKE (NORWEGIAN CREAM CAKE)
Blotkake, layered spongecake covered with drifts of whipped cream and fruit, is a dessert that Norwegians are passionate and possessive about. It is a traditional sweet finish for any festive meal, whether a long, dark winter lunch or a long, sunlit summer dinner. "Scandinavians really value lingering and feasting at the table," said Maren Waxenberg, a Norwegian-American cook who lives in New York City and serves this cake at Thanksgiving. Cloudberries are a protected crop in Norway and are rarely available fresh in the United States, but raspberries are a good substitute.

Steps:
- Bake the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees and mist a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Combine eggs, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer (or the whisk attachment of a stand mixer) until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Sift cake flour and baking powder into a separate bowl, then fold into the egg mixture in 2 additions.
- Pour batter into pan and bake on the middle rack of the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean. Let cool completely before removing from pan.
- Make the frosting and filling: Beat whipping cream, vanilla and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Transfer 1/3 of the whipped cream to a separate bowl and stir in preserves.
- Use a serrated knife to slice cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. Arrange top layer of the cake cut-side-up on a platter. Poke a few holes in the cake layer with a toothpick, then sprinkle with 1/3 of the liqueur or juice.
- Spread half the whipped cream and preserves mixture over the cake layer, then arrange middle layer on top. Poke holes in the middle layer with a toothpick and sprinkle with another 1/3 of the liqueur or juice. Top with remaining whipped cream and preserves mixture.
- Arrange the bottom cake layer on top of the stack, cut-side-down. Poke more holes and sprinkle with remaining liqueur or juice. Frost top and sides of cake with the whipped cream, using a pastry bag to pipe on stars or other designs, if you'd like. Decorate with fresh berries.
