Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better your cream wafers will taste. This is especially important for the cream filling.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the wafers to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the wafers until they are golden brown. This will give them a nice, crispy texture.
- Let the wafers cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting and making the wafers soggy.
- Use a variety of fillings. You can use any type of filling you like, such as chocolate, vanilla, fruit, or nuts.
- Be creative with your decorations. You can use sprinkles, melted chocolate, or chopped nuts to decorate your cream wafers.
