These really turned out quite delicious; the perfect crunch, the perfect sweetness, and the perfect size. However, since I'm such a chocoholic, no doubt I'll try a chocolate version, either flavored or dipped, especially with Valentine's Day just around the corner. Enjoy!
My mother was a wonderful baker. Surprisingly, most of her baking she did without the aid of a cookbook. I hope my sharing brings back memories for you...for me, it's in my mother's kitchen, with her standing behind me, and letting me create.

Sugar Waffles for your Sugar Pie...
I love crispy cookies and I'm especially fond of Pizzelles. So, when I came across this recipe
for Sugar Waffles from King Arthur Flour, I thought these were worth a try. I used my heart-shaped waffle iron, as was called for, but you can use a regular waffle iron, just not Belgium-style. Someone on the their blog asked if you could use a Pizzelle iron, and even though I also own one of those, I opted for the "deeper" affect that a waffle iron would give. These cookies incorporate a couple of unique ingredients: malted milk powder and Vanilla Butternut flavoring. I used both so I would know how they were meant to taste before I started inventing other flavors. Here's the King Arthur Flour's version: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/sugar-waffles-recipe

ReplyDeleteI totally understand. If it wasn't for my daughter, this blog wouldn't be possible. She set up the new template and made it more user-friendly. And yes, Kel, I am in the Valentine's Day mode, thinking how much I LOVE my family and know we'll all get through the tough things together.
ReplyDeleteThese look delicious! I'm glad you don't need a Pizzelle iron. I'll actually be able to try these!
ReplyDeleteI just got my cookies in the mail--these are great and would be really nice dipped in hot chocolate. Yum!
ReplyDeleteKandyce: you just need a regular waffle iron to make these tasty treats. Very easy...very good.
