Sweet Holiday Cookies: Berlinerkranser For Serious Eats
Monday, December 14, 2009 
In spite of what the name may imply, the Berlinerkranser is actually not German at all—in just about every recipe I have seen, these rich wreath-shaped butter cookies are said to hail from Norway, where they are a holiday tradition.
Could it be the result of German immigration patterns? Or perhaps these buttery wreaths call to mind the holiday decorations from Berlin?
Alas, while I cannot answer these questions, I can attest to their deliciousness. Buttery, crumbly, and complemented with a whisper of tartness from orange zest and plenty of sweetness from candied fruit garnish, these cookies are like a bite of holiday cheer.
You can find the full entry and recipe at Serious Eats.

Hi - I came across your site from another blog - Passion 4 baking. Love your site. A lot of great inspiration :-)
I'm a Norwegian and I love Berlinerkranser and I bake it every year. It is my favorite Christmas cookie. I never tasted it with an orange tast to it. Must try it.
We usually decorate it with perls of sugar before we put it into the oven.
