Leave the dough to rest for a while. Work the dough until it is smooth and press it out into the moulds. Bake at a high heat until the cakes are golden brown (approx. 180 degrees, 15 minutes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let the sand cakes cool slightly in the moulds. Press lightly on the moulds to loosen the cakes. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to fill the cakes with something savoury, such as mullet cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"649\" src=\"https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0668.jpeg\" alt=\"Bestemors oppskriftsbok\" class=\"wp-image-1826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0668.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0668-300x195.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0668-768x498.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0668-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Grandma's recipe book<\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sandkake is a popular, small and sweet Christmas cake.
