Kvikklunsj with Apples and Mascarpone Cream

Kvikklunsj is just about as Norwegian as you can get, and very popular after long skiing trips in the mountains at Easter.

There are many national versions of Kvikklunsj all over the world. Not exactly the same, but the American version is called KitKat.
