Mike,
Have you ever had Krapfen (also called Kreppel)? They are kind of like donuts but stuffed with some kind of plum filling. Shown below:


We got them hot at the bakery all the time. Yum!

Are Aebelskivers different from Krapfen (also called Kreppel)?

[stbuch]

I think you may be right-they are the Danish version of the Krapfen!

Face it, a hot suffed donut is great in any language!

Sherrie welcome to Finland. Those we have here all over.. Very Yummy.
Here they are filled with apple, blueberry or vanilla, and even rasberry and strawberry.

My parents were bakers and we had a bakery in Sweden as well when we lived there so we had fresh goodies all the time.

Can you say "marzipan"? that's my favorite German snack. My mother makes a "zuckerkuchen" to die for.

Cant forget marzipan, that is also a product of Scandinavia, my parents used to make roses out of it to top wedding cakes and other occasions.

Your correct its very good.. Ive had enough of it though via my parents.
But ok on a nice Scandinavian style cream cake its still very tasty.

I make a Swedish version. I use a pressure cooker so the alcohol doesn't boil off.

Alcohol boils off at 78 degrees Celsius (172.4 degrees Fahrenheit).

And I don't get it hot enough to let any get out.
