I first heard of this Wisconsin pastry on my families annual trip to door county for fall fest. It’s a delicious flakey baked pastry stuffed with a filling of your choice and glazed in a royal vanilla icing. This recipe teaches you how to laminate a dough to build the signature flakey layers of this Danish pastry. The effort is very much worth it after you create two giant Kringle’s, so you have one for you and one you give away. You won’t regret making this one if you love baking. The perfect pastry to pair with your morning cup of coffee.
