Thnx a lot iice - So far I've enjoyed what I've seen around here - some of the discussions are sooooo funny, I think I dig Naija humour a lot
At work my friend from Nigeria and I laugh a lot and joke around - some of the others think we're very silly -

Well Well - here ya go - this should make some pretty good "Vaniljekranse" - Can't say I'm all that crazy 'bout the danish cookies though, I prefer "brownies"

1/2 cup (120 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup (90 g) granulated sugar
1 1/2 cup (150 g) white flour
1 large egg
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp (7.5 ml) baking powder

1 Beat the butter with the sugar.
2 Add the egg and vanilla and beat until you get a uniform mixture.
3 Mix the flour and baking powder and gradually blend them into the mixture. When you're done, you should have a rather sticky dough.
4 Shape the dough into balls, about 1 inch (2 cm) in diameter. Roll them in sugar and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving about an inch of space between cookies, so that they don't stick together when they expand.
5 Bake in preheated oven at 350F or 175C for 20 minutes.
6 Remove from oven, let them cool for a while, and start eating right away.

Yeah I guess you're rigth - actually "danish Buttercookies" is a bluff, they're massproduced, and contains no butter - They get subsidies from the EU, so people in developing countries can buy them cheap, and thus they kill buisness for local producers of sweets --- nahhhh at the coffeetable we often have homebaked stuff, bcoz we have a rule that if someone screws up they have to bring cookies :-) I can find you a recipe, and then you can bake some

I heard about Nairaland because I was searching for information about the song "Nigerian Jaga Jaga" - I was helping my friend to put MP3's on her mobilephone, and we were looking for Nigerian music , she really wanted that song, soooo bad , well I finally have found a download, so now I cn give it to her

We sure do - At coffebreaks at work, that's always on the table

Hi - I'm Soren a danish-born cosmopolitan. I have for many years listened to african music, and with joy remember a King Sunny Ade performance at the Roskilde Festival years ago , I joined this board as I have become interested in Nigeria, since I got a co-worker from there, that has become a good friend of mine.
