An Aeggekage is a traditional Danish oven pancake, usually served as a buffet item or as a dessert for a family holiday meal. It is a light, cake-like dish that is not too sweet and absolutely delicious with fresh seasonal berries and fresh whipped cream! (Think of it as a sweetened Yorkshire pudding). Just make sure you serve immediately, this pancake does not do well cold nor is it a good leftover. But chances are you won't have any remaining Aeggekage to worry about!

Walking Takis Street Corn
This walking Takis street corn recipe is my take on Mexican street corn in a bag of fiery chili-lime Takis. No forks required—finger food at its finest. The corn mixture is a bit bland on its own, but the chile and lime in the Takis make it the perfect combo.
