Magical Troll Cream is a traditional Norwegian dessert, often eaten on special occasions and during the Christmas season. It is made with lingonberries, a fruit native to Scandinavia, and whipped egg whites, which create a light and fluffy texture. The dessert is easy to make and can be customized with different flavors of jam and toppings such as fresh berries or toasted nuts. Magical Troll Cream is a perfect sweet treat to bring in the new year in Norway, but can be enjoyed anytime of the year as well.

Instructions

4.	Fold the lingonberry mixture into the egg whites until fully combined.
5.	Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving in glasses or bowls.
