You can borrow the cookbook at the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/scandinavianhome0000morr

It's an old-timey cookbook filled with Scandinavian American recipes. I've made the above recipe and it's pretty good.

    Oh! Childhood memory that I’d forgotten. A neighbor used to make these and give my family some. IIRC she dipped one end in melted chocolate
