Sandbakkelse (Sand Tarts)
"TRANSLATED from Norwegian, the name of these cookies is 'sand tarts'. They're most attractive if baked in authentic sandbakkelse molds, which can be purchased in a Scandinavian import shop. Most any decorative cookie mold will do, though, and the interesting shapes will make these tarts the focus of your cookie tray!" —Karen Hoylo, Duluth, Minnesota

Reviews
What a great recipe. Also, you can buy the tarts from Bethany Housewares (a brand that specializes in Scandinavian dishes and tools).
I thought that this was very good!! you just have to make sure that you press the dough as thin as you can in the mold they turn out cripy very very good
where do you get these molds. cookies sound good but need molds.
