These are traditional Finnish christmas pastries called joulutorttu, lit. christmas tarts. They are made from puff pastry and topped with prune marmalade. Merry christmas to one and all! Image from the interwebs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joulutorttu

It's a treat :) we are usually to lazy for a proper marmeladen, just boils the prunes and let them cool.

Looks delicious, but do Finns understand the word cookies? If I have to ask for these by name I'm going to starve.

Yes, cookie is keksi. These are not cookies and we are very particular what are and are not cookies or pastries or any other category when it comes to baked goods. This can also change based on the area. Sometimes even the name of the baked good is different in certain areas.
