Kringla Danish Kringle

Kringla - 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: Full Kringle recipe...
