Tips: reduce the amount of sugar if you want to serve the cobbler with vanilla ice cream. Yum!

It was great to have the friday's fika! Look forward to having dinner with y'all again after we're done with the home exam & also with the rest of our class ;) Anyway... here's the recipe for kastengel.
Dutch: kaas (cheese) + stengel (stem)
Indonesian: kastengel – we, Indonesians, love to shorten words. We can’t be bothered to pronounce long vowels!
Ingredients:
250 g butter
2 egg yolks
300 g all-purpose flour
75 g grated cheese (Gouda or Edam are the most used)
A pinch of salt
Garnish:
1 egg yolk
Grated cheese
Directions:
Beat butter, egg yolks, and salt.
Gradually add cheese and flour, stir well.
Bit by bit, roll the dough about the size of your index finger, cut the tapered tips, and then cut it into half (they should look rectangle-ish by now).
*PS: Extra flour can be added if the dough is not stiff enough to roll, trust your instinct ;) It’s easier to roll the dough when you cover your hands with flour
Place on cookie sheet covered with baking paper.
Garnish them, one by one, with egg yolk – using brush – then top each with a bit of grated cheese.
Preheat oven to 175 degrees C.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until they look golden.
When you remove the cookies from the oven, they are usually still slightly soft. Allow them to cool until the texture is firm.
Put them in a box & “selamat makan”!
Plus… I found some other original Indonesian tongue twisters:
Kuku kaki kakakku kaku-kaku kena paku, kak: My brother/sister’s toenails are stiff because he/she stepped on pins, bro/sis
Satu sate tujuh tusuk: One satay seven skewers – Repeat them rapidly!
Semoga sukses, veel succes, good luck with your home exam!!!
