I have a funny stories about rosettes.....in my teen, one of my friends was running for "Queen of Trail" which was given to the girl who made the most money. I'd never had them before, and once I had one, I saw stars....they were so wonderful, and she won selling them outside Eaton's at a small table. Later, in my 30's, I found rosette irons and one afternoon, I sat on a tall stool and made 2 batches. So delicious, and just as my boyfriend walked through the door, I finished the last one....burp!!! So this year, I'm going to try them again....and they'll be all mine all over again! So happy!!!
I really am pleased I found you two. I watch your video's over and over again. Knitting along with it. I have found you very entertaining, relaxing and such friendly polite way to enjoy learning new things. I have encorporated many ideas along with my own work. I order many colors of yarn you created. I have been knitting for 70 yrs. and still learning! Tk you for sharing your experience. From a faithful watcher in midwest Canadian!
I made the Rosette cookies tonight. A friend gave me the molds years ago, but I didn't know how to use them until I watched your video. They came out just fine. I used powdered sugar on them. Next time I think I will try cinnamon sugar.
My Danish mother-in-law taught me how to make klejner. She bought whole cardamom pods and ground the seeds herself, and she fried them in lard. She dusted them wit powdered sugar. They were so delicious and addictive. Her mother cooked for the Danish royal family. She was a wonderful cook. My Swedish descent mother said that her mother also made them for Christmas, the cookie was the same but the name was a little different. She thought these cookies were made in all of the Scandinavian countries. Do you make them? I tried making them and the were not as good. I didn't use lard, however. I do add cardamom to other recipes, even oatmeal cookies. Love cardamom.
Thank you to you both for this. Love Arne's impatience to get on and Carlos firmly showing us all the preparation of the mix. You make me smile. Love your kitchen.
We use to makes these when I was little. I could almost smell them and taste them while watching this. I know I have some rosettes. I might have to make some today. Thanks for the memory!
What a beautiful kitchen! I loved your cookies and I can't wait for the other six! Here in this household we deep fry spanish borrachuelos made from flour, wine, sugar and anise! Have a merry Christmas everybody!
that has got to be the most amazing & clever Christmas cookies ive ever seen well done chaps xxxxxxxx thanks so much for showing us how to do this im going to add this to our Christmas eve from now on xxxxx please post a link where we can buy the heart cookies cutters things xxxx
Hi Arne and Carlos. I have really enjoyed watching your videos. I especially liked the chandelier that you made for your greenhouse. Looking forward to your future projects. Thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays from Michigan, USA.🌨☃️🎄
I had to come and watch again to admire that stove! Oh, what a stove! Also, the the basket for trout or whatever fish hanging on the wall. You two have created the "Dream Home Extraordinaire" ! Happy yuletide and Merry Christmas again! I'm not stalking, just admiring! lol.
Dear Arne & Carlos, many thanks for this great recipe! Now i found and quickly ordered some of these irons and i will try these sweet cookies on christmas this year :) So i wish you all the best and have a nice christmas time :) Andrea
This bought tears to my eyes! I remember these from childhood! The couple next door, their parents moved to America to be with their daughter and husband and their children built them a guest house! Every Christmastime Yule, Gramama would come over with plates of these and we the neighours would all come and help! What a wonderful memory!!!! I had completely forgotten all about it! Thank you! Thank you so much. They were from Norway a little vilage way out there which was why her daughter didn't want her to live there alone. She missed her terribly. Such comfort. Each Yule is different but those were extremely warm and special years.
These remind me of buñuelos- the Mexican ones- I know the ones from Spain are round. rosette irons are used too. I actually used your dough recipe to make them just crisped them slightly longer and dipped them into a cinnamon/sugar mix once they came out of the fryer... thanks for sharing 😊
My son in law is from Sweden and I have visited several times and I loved the food Olaf’s mother fixed, the fresh fish market and the farm house where parents, grandparents and greats lived it is beautiful with three stories. Your house reminds me of Olaf’s. Visited some very old churches which I loved. You know in USA even old historic is very young in comparison. Thank you 😊
I am so going to try this! Looks so good! Now I need to get on Amazon and find those irons! Lol... Oh, yeah I finally learned the Norwegian knitting, I slowed down Arne so I could see what he was doing, and Arne you are right so much easier! Thanks guys for show me how to knit the Norwegian way! Love you two, your awesome!
I love you both! I must bake several cookies at Christmas time also. Now, I MUST go find me a few of these Rosette irons and try making these. I do see these cookies around here in the United States, but have never made them. Thank you for such lovely homey comforting videos all the time. Peace to you.
Very heart warming video. Those cookies are like the Funnel Cake we buy at the fair. They just drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a squiggly mound. Then they sprinkle lots of powdered sugar on.
my swedish mother made rosettes at christmas with the powdered sugar of course i would eat the ones that did not turn out from your swedish friend in america
I will this year. I had my own but these are special. I made my krumkake yesterday and I’m making lefse today. I make the rosettes and fattigman around the 22 or 23, sometimes even Christmas morning.
ARNE & CARLOS - Knitting, Home, Garden and Lifestyle thanks guys. I feel so blessed. Whenever I write to you, you reply. Some of my friends (knitting group) are really impressed. Paris is way too far for me, but if I say I want cookie irons I'm assuming people will know what I'm talking about. Well not to worry. I don't give up easily and will search till i find. Thank you.
Having just discovered you two amazingly talented guys, I will be binge watching all your videos after Christmas. Once Christmas is over and the cold and snow set in you know where I’ll be and what I will be doing.
In India there is a community called Anglo Indian of which I belong, their traditions are European, they too make these cookies at Christmas. Some people put semolina in the mix. Brings back memories
My ex is full Norwegian. He had a rosette iron when we met. Omg i love those things. They are lovely when done. And so so tasty.. but alas i never got the hang of making them but i know why now since Arne mentioned not getting batter over the top of the irone which is what i was doing. Arne yours were beautiful. I let my ex do the work and he did a fine job. Will get another iron soon and try again. THANK YOU. My ex's parents were both born in Norway so they spoke it to my ex daily. He knows many words yet but its rusty now since they have been gone many years.
if you Google rosette irons you will get a mixture of them mostly on ebay or amazon. will be getting mine in time for Christmas looking forward to the other 6 cookies x
So little batter goes into each cookie. Making those is truly an act of love!

I forgot all about these cookies. My grandma( who was born in Sweden) used to make these when I was little. Thanks so much for reminding me. ❤️
Delicious!!!
We use to makes these when I was little. I could almost smell them and taste them while watching this. I know I have some rosettes. I might have to make some today. Thanks for the memory!
Thank you, I am hoping to try these for my family!!!
We hope they like them, if not, you can have them all by yourself
It is our family tradition also. We make rosettes and little baskets to fill with jam. Takes a bit for perfection.

You are welcome!
I'm enjoying all your videos and learning how to knit in the round with your easiest sock in the world videos :)! Thank you two wonderful men!
My grandma used to do that rosettes. No idea where she had that tradition from. Probably from her English heritage.
Probably!
Hiiiiiii I’ve never made these YET:(
I am so going to try this! Looks so good! Now I need to get on Amazon and find those irons! Lol... Oh, yeah I finally learned the Norwegian knitting, I slowed down Arne so I could see what he was doing, and Arne you are right so much easier! Thanks guys for show me how to knit the Norwegian way!

Our family made these this year, Christmas 2018. Turned out fantastic!
Norwegain Christmas cookies are the best. I usually make 21 kinds for the holiday.
This is soo much prettier than what we deep-fry here for new years eve here in the Netherlands (oliebollen). Keep the cooking videos coming!!
Hola Arne y Carlos, que Delicia verlos y aprender de uds. Un beso Verónica de Dinamarca.
This reminds me of my childhood at Christmas at Lutheran Church coffee hours and socializing (USA).
Do you use that stove for all cooking? What a cool stove!!!! Who cuts the wood?
I love you both! I must bake several cookies at Christmas time also. Now, I MUST go find me a few of these Rosette irons and try making these. I do see these cookies around here in the United States, but have never made them. Thank you for such lovely homey comforting videos all the time. Peace to you.
Stephanie Fricke ...Martha Stewart does a heart set and you can definitely buy a set on ebay.
How long before Christmas do you make your rosettes and fattigman?
My mom and grandma made these for me I love them
Wish we had white eggs 🥚 in 🇬🇧, we only have brown beige eggs .
Very heart warming video. Those cookies are like the Funnel Cake we buy at the fair. They just drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a squiggly mound. Then they sprinkle lots of powdered sugar on.
I have never seen these cookies made before. Love them. I might have to try them. 🎄
my swedish mother made rosettes at christmas with the powdered sugar of course i would eat the ones that did not turn out from your swedish friend in america
been making these since i was a kid with my grandmother.
My aunt sent me my grandma’s rosette irons just before she passed on.
Have you used them to make cookies?
I will this year. I had my own but these are special. I made my krumkake yesterday and I’m making lefse today. I make the rosettes and fattigman around the 22 or 23, sometimes even Christmas morning.
Mmmm.....yummy, yummy
Delicious .....
And easy.
I love you guys
THANK YOU
Thank you!
Ah crap! I discovered you guys in January. Will re-watch when the time comes, 2018. I’m thinking holy freakin Christmas donuts! (Or fritters). Yum!
We used to have these in Germany ,when I was a child!!!! I had all but forgotten about these. Thank you for the memory
Wow... Did this years ago too. I had a iron for Belgium waffles. I have to surge my closet perhaps I have it somewhere.
Hi Arne and Carlos. I live in Canada. How about coming here to make some cookies for me lol. I wonder where I can get those irons.
Francine st-denis We got the irons at flea markets. Some of them in Paris. Maybe you'll find something similar. Fingers crossed!
ARNE & CARLOS - Knitting, Home, Garden and Lifestyle thanks guys. I feel so blessed. Whenever I write to you, you reply. Some of my friends (knitting group) are really impressed. Paris is way too far for me, but if I say I want cookie irons I'm assuming people will know what I'm talking about. Well not to worry. I don't give up easily and will search till i find. Thank you.
Francine st-denis and
Pamela Hulme hi Pamela. People write my name like this and I don't understand what it means when you write my name. Thanks for letting me know.
This happens to me too, but I don't see the reason for it that you apparently can see! So I still don't know why people do this!
WOW!!! I live in South America but I love all the Christmas europeans traditions, thank you both for sharing!!!
Having just discovered you two amazingly talented guys, I will be binge watching all your videos after Christmas. Once Christmas is over and the cold and snow set in you know where I’ll be and what I will be doing.
Making these 🌹🇳🇴🇺🇸♥️
In India there is a community called Anglo Indian of which I belong, their traditions are European, they too make these cookies at Christmas. Some people put semolina in the mix. Brings back memories
This brings back wonderful memories of my grandmother who was from Copenhagen. Love your kitchen! Thank you for sharing.
I’m coming for those delicious rosette lol
I love these cookies, in Sweden we call them "Struvor", but we usually dip them in caster sugar. Yum !
Arne, your cookies are superb! I love your videos. Love and Blessings to you... from Australia xxx
Lovely!!! Thank you. Merry Christmas! You guys are amazing xox
You need to sew yourselves a nice apron to preserve your clothes...that could be another chapter of yournext book!!🤗🌹🍀

My mom made these when I was a child. Yum!
Hello Arne and Carlos, Merry Christmas! I love how you work so well together! And how Arne cannot wait for his cookie!🤗
My Mom has made these. They are fantastic. But I only like them really fresh. They can get soggy.
Freeze them, they defrost quickly.
I miss making rosettes with my mom every christmas. The last time I tried by myself, it didn't go so well. I will have to try again.... 😋
Good luck on your second try!
I used to make these when I was a child. What a nice video. I hope you will make more just like this one if you have time. Thanks!
if you Google rosette irons you will get a mixture of them mostly on ebay or amazon. will be getting mine in time for Christmas looking forward to the other 6 cookies x
Ooooo rosettes! I remember my grandmother making these! Just inherited her iron so will be trying out your recipe!!!
Do it!
My mother made rosetts
Did you like them?
They look like little waffles, yes?? Are they waffle irons? Look really delicious xx
Not waffles
Arne is a blondie! You guys are great in the kitchen. My husband either chases me out or I run away. 😊
😊
I learned how to make those cookies back in High School Foods class, they are delicious.
They sure are!
Yes I'm also wondering where those irons can be purchased in Canada!
para mi próxima navidad ...gracias
Arne and Carlos, you are wonderful. Period. 🎄❤️🎄
I would love to know what brand you kitchen scale is please.
Struvor in Sweden. My grandmother (mormor) made them 🙂
Hi! How beautiful cookies! Thanks!

Elizabeth Clements it goes into a chimney.
Merry Christmas to you both!
These are just like the funnel cakes we have at our state fairs in the USA.
Looks yummy
Thank you!
You don't use any vanilla to the batter?
Mai Chang ci was just thinking that vanilla would be good in them. Or maybe almond extract even, hmmmmm .
