Here’s a Danish ad. (You can find the translation here)

And here is a recipe for Danish Kringle. It is in no way authentic, not being pretzel shaped or anything. But, this sweet treat is fabulous and insanely easy to make.

Just fill a ready made refrigerated pie crust with a mixture of pecans, butter and brown sugar. Bake it up and drizzle with glaze and more nuts. Perfect for breakfast or dessert.
