Homemade oatmeal cookies are one of the classical cookies for “fika” in Sweden. These are small chewy cookies with the taste of syrup and oatmeal. Fast to do in less than thirty minutes. When you take them out from the oven you can shape them by hanging them over a bottle. To make them more luxurious dip the edges in dark chocolate.
The baked potatoes have a soft inside with a crispy skin on the outside. There are two ways of cooking a baked potato either as it is or with aluminum around them in the oven. In this recipe we chosen to enhance the flavor with a typical Swedish shrimp sauce.
This is perfect party mingle food that require little preparations. To get the best taste use ecological eggs, fresh ecological dill and fresh premium shrimps. If you want to put even more effort into this dish you can make your own mayonnaise. To put an extra touch to it all you can squeeze a drop of fresh citron juice on each egg half.
