Danish Kringle
Danish Kringle, or “Kringla” (which what my family recipe collection calls this recipe), seems to be a midwestern variation of “kringle,” which is the actual name. This Danish kringle recipe has been around since at least the time my grandmother was a young housewife in Des Moines, Iowa, in the late 1940s. Where she got it before that, I don’t know!
Here is her kringle recipe passed down to my Mom then to me:
