Lefse

A tradition in my family is a Norwegian food called Lefse. Both of my Mother's grandparents are from Norway. This little delight has been passed down all the way to me and my sisters and we will carry it on! (because it is delicious!)
Here is the way we do it.

Cutting Board.
Mashed Potatoes
The Beloved Recipe
Chill the Potatoes (right next to the jimmy dean's sausage for stuffing if possible)
Make the mix and get ready to roll.
The best roller of lefse ever. My Mom
Use this handy dandy wooden stick thing to scoop it up...

and put it on the skillet

Watch it brown like a tortilla

lay on cheesecloth

Oh, and here is my cute little dad making his phenomenal fudge.
buttery goodness...
the chocolate fudge. I could eat a whole pan.

Back to the lefse... smother it in butter and load sugar on it. roll it up like a taco and EAT!

Mmmm, sounds delicious! Why did you never share this yummy goodness with your roommates when we lived in Pocatello together. You held out on us Mollie. :)
