About the dish

These Norwegian spiced cookies are typically prepared with a buttery pastry that is enriched with syrup ( sirap ), cinnamon, ginger, ground white pepper, and aniseed. Sirupsnipper cookies are traditionally made with baker’s ammonia and are always cut into a diamond shape, with a halved almond placed in the center. The cookies are an absolute must for Christmas in Norway.
