Experience a tradition with these
unusual round wafer cookies, which originated n the Czech
Republic’s famed spa town of Carlsbad or Karlóvy Váry.
First created in 1856 as a spa souvenir, these wafer cookies
or “oplatky” became famous throughout Europe as
Karlsbader Oblaten.
In 1996, Jiri Knedlik, a Czech refugee in Sacramento,
began producing “oplatky” as the Sacramento Cookie.
Although called “wine wafers” they do not contain
alcohol, but are delicious served with a glass of wine.
They are delicious as desserts or snacks and are just as
good with a cup of hot chocolate, coffee, or a glass of
milk. They can even be used to make a scrumptious
dessert cake called a Piscine torte (layer each cookie with
whipped cream and allow to set refrigerated overnight.
Cut into wedges and serve.) |
