Haha, I also have Knuppeldik aan Koningskos, and agree, 'beskuit deeg' is divine, especially when there's aniseed in. My hubby, kids and even I, often used to break off pieces of the dough. Hubby used to say he'll just inject a little extra insulin!
I've been lazy as there are some really good rusks on the market. Ouma's Rusks are the absolute worst though, I'll never buy those!
This dish was really good, but everything had to be chopped so finely because my brother chokes easily. He's actually going for surgery next week to sort that out.
Have a great week @fermentedphil, looks like we'll be having many candlelight dinners for quite a while!

Candlelight dinners have their own charm, but it works on your nerves after a while. Luckily we cook with gas stoves, so loadshedding doesn't impact cooking.
This reminds me of asking my mother to bake some rusks! We always make it a big event, loading trays full of rusks, and changing the recipe depending on how we feel. But as you say, the rusks in the store are sometimes so close to what you yourself bake, and so much less trouble and work.
I really hope the surgery works out! Best of luck and you and your family is in our prayers.
