Help in identifying Scandinavian dessert recipe - Happy middle aged Asian female in casual clothes with teenage daughter smiling while preparing tasty meringue cookies in kitchen

Background -- I made this recipe as part of a group project (in college) that was preparing different foods from around the world. My group had Scandinavia, but as I didn't find this recipe (one of the girls in the group did), I don't know which country the recipe originates from.

I recall it being a simple recipe, but I'd like to see if I can find the full recipe. From what I remember, it required:

  1. 2-3 egg whites, which were whipped into a froth
  2. melting a mixture of dark and milk chocolate morsels together

Both of these were poured onto a cake/cookie layer that had been rolled out in a sheet like way, and then left to freeze overnight. This layer of the dessert was almost wafer like, but was very crumbly (but not very crunchy).

It may or may not contain nuts.



Best Answer

Maybe it was a variant of chokladbiskvier, a Swedish macaroon?
