WAFFLE COOKIES



Waffle Cookies image

My mom made these cookies years ago. They are good with or without the frosting. Sorry, the recipe didn't say how long they cook (so I guessed on the prep and cook time), or how much powdered sugar to use, and I haven't made these in awhile so I don't remember. I'm also not sure about how many dozen this makes, I just guessed.

Grandma's Waffle Cookies (Pizzelles) image

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.

GLAZED WAFFLE COOKIES



Glazed Waffle Cookies image

One of my best buds only eats waffles when she's very happy. ("We need waffles--I got the job!" or, "It's so nice out today, we should get waffles.") So I created this recipe for her--and for anyone else looking for a little happy in their day; it's super-fast and easy. If you want to get fancy, you can make a few different fruit glazes to tint your cookies with different colors and flavors.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 55 small cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
113 grams (4 ounces or 8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
99 grams (1/2 cup) granulated sugar
53 grams (1/4 cup) packed light brown sugar
113 grams (2 large) eggs
5 grams (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract
120 grams (1 cup) all-purpose flour
3 grams (1/2 teaspoon) baking soda
2 grams (1/2 teaspoon) fine sea salt
120 grams (3/4 cup) fresh berries (blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries, or a combination)
25 grams (2 tablespoons) granulated sugar
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
228 grams (2 cups) powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the iron with nonstick spray. Keep the spray handy and occasionally reapply it between batches.
  • Meanwhile, make the cookie batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the butter and both sugars. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well to incorporate each one. Beat in the vanilla.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold into the butter mixture, mixing just until fully incorporated.
  • Working in batches, use a No. 60 (1-tablespoon) scoop or spoon to place 1-tablespoon mounds of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, then close the iron. Bake the cookies until golden on both sides and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the cookies from the iron and transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining batter. Cool completely.
  • Make the glaze: Combine the berries, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan; bring the mixture to a simmer and cook over medium heat until the berries break down, 10 to 12 minutes. Use a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon to crush the berries. When the berries are very soft and have released their juices, strain the juices through a strainer set over a medium bowl and let cool to room temperature.
  • Add the powdered sugar to the juice and whisk until a smooth glaze forms.
  • One at a time, dunk the cooled cookies into the glaze, shake off the excess glaze (glaze that pools in the nooks and crannies won't set very well), and invert the cookies onto a wire rack--the glaze will set in 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right waffle maker: Look for a waffle maker with adjustable browning settings to achieve the desired crispiness.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in better-tasting waffle cookies.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle maker: Leave enough space between the cookies so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the cookies until golden brown: The cookies should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Serve the cookies warm: Waffle cookies are best served warm, fresh out of the waffle maker.
