Holiday Sweets Across the USA-- Part 3: Gingersnaps, Hermit Bars & Kringles
SWEDISH GINGERSNAPS--
Minnesota
These classic cookies, spiced with ginger, cinnamon, cardamom and cloves, are a Christmastime standby in Minnesota.
HERMIT BARS--
New England
Spiced with ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, these molasses-and-brown-sugar treats are popular in New England.
KRINGLES--
Wisconsin (Especially in Racine).
For generations of Wisconsinites, the season isn't complete without these flaky Danish-style pastries that are an institution at Bendtsen's and O&H Danish Bakery in Racine.
I always pick one up when our local grocery store, Angelo's in Johnsburg, Illinois, receives a supply. Something you need to try at least once.
