This is a famous Danish recipe served every Sunday morning at Grandma Anne Rasmussens house in Ludington, MI. We used to try and see who could eat the most and keep Grandma going all morning filling up the Aebleskiver pans!
Note: Aebleskivers are baked on top of the stove in a special Aebleskiver pan with a hole for each one. Aebleskiver pans may be purchased at most gourmet cookware shops. You can also order from Rasmussens (Not related), P.O. Box 67, Solvang, CA 93463.
