GRANDMA JOYCE'S FAMOUS WAFFLES
My grandmother makes the greatest waffles I've ever had - and I think a lot of the flavor has to do with her special touch, knowing exactly how thin the batter should be. This is the recipe she gave me, and it is really tasty, but be wary that the batter s-h-o-u-l-d be kind of thin (like thin pancake batter). I sometimes have to use twice the amount of liquid because it is very dry where I live and humid where she's from, so feel free to thin the batter to your liking with water. Don't worry - you won't mess these delicious, buttery waffles up! Serve with butter and homemade syrup (recipe below).

Steps:
- Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix together eggs and milk, then stir in melted shortening (you may substitute oil or butter but the resultant texture won't be quite as good!).
- Pour into dry ingredients and mix well.
- *Batter needs to be somewhat thin. Add more water if necessary.
- Waffle iron has to be good and hot before pouring in the batter. Waffles are done when steam stops (if the waffle iron is hot enough, you should be able to hear the waffles steam. You may also see steam around the edges of it. Be careful!).
- Grandma's Famous Syrup!: In a saucepan, bring to a boil the following ingredients: 2 cups white sugar, 2/3 cup water, pinch of salt, 1 Tbs. white corn syrup. Simmer about 5 minutes, then add 1 Tbs. Maple flavoring.

GRANDMA'S WAFFLE COOKIES (PIZZELLES)
I could always count on finding these authentic Italian cookies in Grandma's freezer, and her house always smelled yummy! They're great dipped in milk. Grandpa was a blacksmith and actually made their waffle iron, which I still have, although I use my modern electric pizzelle maker when making these.

Steps:
- Combine eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, butter, and anise oil in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until creamy and well combined. Mix in 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt until combined. Slowly add remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing on low speed until mixture resembles a thick pancake batter.
- Preheat a pizzelle cooking iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Drop a teaspoon of dough onto each plate of the cooking iron and close the lid. Cook just until steaming slows, 10 to 20 seconds. Repeat with remaining batches of batter.

Tips:
- Use buttermilk and melted butter: Buttermilk and melted butter make waffles light and fluffy. Bring the buttermilk to room temperature before using it to help the waffles rise better.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking: This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make the waffles more tender.
- Use a hot waffle iron: A hot waffle iron will help the waffles cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the waffle iron: Overcrowding the waffle iron will prevent the waffles from cooking evenly.
- Serve waffles immediately: Waffles are best served immediately after they are cooked. If you need to keep them warm, place them in a single layer on a wire rack in a warm oven.
Conclusion:
Grandma Joyce's Famous Waffles are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. With a few simple tips, you can make waffles that are light, fluffy, and golden brown. Serve them with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
