AUNT JEMIMA WAFFLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Grease and preheat your waffle iron.
• Stir together Aunt Jemima mix, milk, egg, and oil until you get a smooth and lump-free mixture. Let the batter rest for 4-5 minutes before you bake.
• Pour the batter onto your waffle iron and close the lid. Let the waffle cook until the steaming stops. Lift the lid and take out the waffle.
• Repeat step 3 until you cook up all your batter.

PRECIOUS AUNT LILL'S PIZZALE WAFFLES

Steps:

• Instructions: Pre-heat Pizzalle iron as instructions for iron dictate.
• Beat together eggs until lemon colored and gradually add sugar. Add cooled margarine, flavoring, and brown sugar. Beat together until smooth. Gradually add flour, a little at a time. Batter will thicken, so if necessary, finish mixing by hand until batter is thoroughly mixed.
• Spray pre-heated iron with cooking spray. Place your iron on top of several layers of newspaper to catch the drippings as they cook. Drop 1 tablespoon of batter in center of waffle maker (the Teflon one with patterned plates is preferred). Using a potholder, hold cover of iron down for 1 to 2 minutes or until waffle is golden brown. Trim excess batter off the plates with a butter knife or soft spatula if batter oozes out the sides while they are cooking. This keeps clean-up to a minimum later on. Don't burn them! If top of iron sticks to batter when lifting, hold it down a few more seconds. When cooked properly, they should just have a slightly golden glow. Remove them with a fork, place on a flat surface and immediately while still hot trim the rough edges off with a sharp knife so they end up in a circular shape. Care for the iron like you would any teflon surface - don't scratch it.
• Cool waffles on flat surface, side by side -don't stack while hot or they'll get soggy. When completely cooled, sprinkle powdered sugar on them and serve on a pretty plate.
• These are delicious and they make wonderful edible gifts at holiday time or to bring to parties. You may also use the broken ones as mix-ins for ice cream, or may serve strawberries and coolwhip on top of them. They are best stored in a big tin with a well fitting lid. If you store them in plastic ware, they will get soggy.
