it reminds me of when my aunt would bring one to our family dinner at Thanksgiving last year and everyone was like super happy and stuff 
. but what's really cool is that you can make your own with this recipe 
by tim anderson! i've been dying to try it out, maybe i'll even get to do a baking project in school next semester 
. Like, come on, folks, if you've got a real recipe, share it! Don't just peddle some watered-down, overpriced version of something that's supposed to be artisanal 
. And what's with the obsession with 'masterpiece' kringle recipes? Can we get a simple, reliable recipe for once? I'm trying to make this for my family gathering and I don't want to spend all day stressing about getting it right 
. Just give me something straightforward and I'll be set 
.
, I'm so glad they're sharing Tim Anderson's recipe online. Who doesn't love baking something for the holidays? Interesting how a simple pastry like the kringle can bring people together...
but at the same time, I think we're kinda overdoing it on the whole "perfect" kringle thing. Like, let's be real, who needs a recipe that's all super precise? 
Can't we just wing it and make something that's actually fun to mess up? 
. And now Tim Anderson is going to spam his recipe all over our thread with his author link and measurements... who even follows recipes anymore? 
the fact that it's got a rich history in Racine, Wisconsin is even more cool 
. It sounds like a super yummy pastry! I'm definitely gonna try making one this Thanksgiving. I've always been more of a pumpkin pie fan, but if it's got cherry marzipan and flaky crust, count me in 
. Has anyone tried any other types of kringle? Like, is there a chocolate version or something? 
I mean, don't get me wrong, it sounds pretty tasty and all, but is it really worth making a big deal about? Can't we just stick to our traditional turkey and mashed potatoes for once? And what's with the cherry marzipan filling? Is that some kind of weird Wisconsin thing? 
Also, I'm not sure how many people are actually going to be like "oh, let me try baking a kringle from scratch"... seems like a lot of work just for a holiday treat. 
! did u know that racine, wisconsin is home to over 20 kringle shops & bakeries? 
they produce over 1 MILLION kringles per year 
! and in the us alone, it's estimated that we consume around 70 million kg of dried fruit, nuts & spices used in kringle production every year 
meanwhile, cherry marzipan kringle is a close second to pumpkin pie as most popular fall dessert
