Yes forgot the almond is a tradition and only one can be in but the trick is to keep it hidden until bowl is empty. People will go for seconds to find it but someone could have been hiding it the whole time. In my family we usually also use a chocolate gift or in Denmark a marzipan pig in a gift box, one of those traditions again, TRY IT.

I love this pudding. I made this today as part of the Aussie/Kiwi Scandanavian part of their round the world tour. My husband and I really enjoyed this. It is very similar to one I used to make when my children were small. I quite successfully cut the recipe in half as there are only two of us. There is still some left, but this is so delicious I don't expect it to last long. I served it with a homemade cherry sauce, omitting the suggested garnish of tangerine and shredded chocolate/chocolate curls. Thanks for a delicious recipe!

I live in Ontario, along the shores of Lake Ontario. I am married to a Dane and love cooking Danish as well as many other foods.
<br>I collect recipes and am in the process of compiling all my recipes into a book for my kids to carry on the family traditions. Both of my kids are out on their own and I have 3 grandkids and 1 expected. I like to spend what little spare time I have gardening and carving with my hubby when I am not teaching folkart.
<br>I would like to write to other Danes on this site to share recipe's.
