I am so excited! I remember my mother (also of Norwegian heritage) serving this bread to us as children, and I recently found a source of the cardamom spice to use in this recipe. Thank you for helping me recall wonderful memories!
This was very good, although I wish we had started with darker chocolate. Much less chocolatey, and much more PG free. This is good for snacks and for desserts.
