• 1 tablespoon shortening
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 pinch salt

• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted, or as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Beat egg whites in a bowl until stiff.

Step 2

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a second bowl. Mix in egg yolks, condensed milk, and shortening. Fold in egg whites.

Step 3

Heat an aebleskiver pan over medium heat until hot. Brush each cup with a little melted butter using a pastry brush, then fill each with about 2 tablespoons of batter until almost full. Cook until they begin to bubble; flip over, allowing batter to fill the bottoms of the cups. Continue to cook, turning as needed, until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
