Lausekset

Lausekset, also known as lauseke in singular, are a type of traditional Finnish sweet pastry. They are typically made from a dough consisting of flour, butter, sugar, and eggs, which is then rolled out and cut into small squares or rectangles. The dough is often flavored with cardamom or vanilla. The pastry is then baked until golden brown and sprinkled with powdered sugar before serving. Lausekset are often enjoyed as a dessert or a snack, and are a popular treat in Finnish cuisine. They are typically served plain, but can also be filled with jam or other sweet fillings. The name "lausekset" comes from the Finnish word "lauseke," which means "small cake" or "small pastry."
