Møsbrømlefse is a traditional sweet snack originating from Salten. It consists of a lefse flatbread that's stuffed with melted goat cheese, buttermilk, syrup, and flour. The combination is slathered on the flatbread, and it can be eaten as it is, or topped with additional ingredients such as butter, sugar, or sour cream.
In the past, møsbrømlefse was prepared for workers who needed a substantial meal to power them through in the cold. Nowadays, it's a tasty afternoon snack or an after-school treat.

The name skillingsboller means penny bun. They're usually eaten as an afternoon snack with a cup of coffee on the side, but some people like to eat them with brown cheese (Brunost).

MAIN INGREDIENTS
Vispipuuro, russedessert, klappgröt, debesmanna, or mannavaht are different names for a creamy Baltic semolina porridge that is prepared with fresh fruit such as tart lingonberries, cranberries, or red currants. When cooked, the thick porridge is whipped until it transforms into a unique treat with a frothy and light consistency.
It is traditionally topped with cream or milk and garnished with fresh fruit. Found across Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Norway and Latvia, this dish is usually enjoyed as a sweet breakfast, a light midday snack, or a refreshing dessert.
Traditionally associated with Christmastime, these popular Norwegian doughnuts called smultring are prepared with a dense dough that is usually spiced with cardamom, cinnamon, lemon or orange zest, as well as various liqueurs. They are typically small in size, ring-shaped, and fried in lard.
Although they were traditionally enjoyed plain, today these crispy treats are often glazed or dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar, and are mainly sold at various mobile stands throughout the country. The variety known as hjortetakk (deer antlers) is different in shape only - two notches are made along the edges of the dough before frying in order to visually represent the antlers.
