Grandmas Waffle Cookies Recipes

GRANDMA'S WAFFLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Plug in Waffle Iron to preheat.
• Melt Butter. Mix with the sugars until well blended.
• Add eggs and vanilla, mix on medium speed for 2 minutes.
• Add salt, baking soda, and enough flour to make dough stiff (about 9 cups give or take.)
• Roll into walnut size balls and place in waffle iron about 2 minutes or until done. I used my handy cookie scoop! Much faster. Remove and repeat with all of the cookie dough.
• Store cookies in an airtight container.
• Can be frozen for up to 3 months.

GRANDMA'S WAFFLE COOKIES (PIZZELLES)

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.

GRANDMA'S SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• The night before you want your waffles, mix the flour, yeast, and lukewarm water.
• Put in tall bowl, as it will rise quite a bit.
• Cover with towel and let sit in room temperature overnight.
• In the morning, uncover and stir.
• Don't be put off by the texture. It is supposed to look weird. Really.
• Add the eggs and oil/milk, enough to make it thin enough to use.
• It might be a little tough to make it all mix together, because it tends to be a bit sticky, but keep at it.
• Usually helps if you've mixed the eggs a little in a separate bowl, so you're not dealing with a whole yolk.
• In small, separate bowl combine baking soda and sugar. Mix until no lumps.
• Add to soda & sugar mixture to bowl with waffle dough.
• Stir until mixed in.
• Let sit about fifteen minutes. (A good time to start preheating your waffle iron.)
• Spray waffle iron with cooking spray. You'll need to repeat this occasionally as the spray wears off.
• Experiment with amounts of waffle dough to put in the iron and times. For us, we use a ladle and cook each waffle for 3-5 minutes. Those sizes and times work perfectly for us, but I'm sure waffle irons vary in size and cooking times.
• You can get creative with adding other ingredients. I haven't tried any of these yet, but I've heard adding crumbled bacon, blueberries, grated apples, etc. to the mix before making the waffles works well.
• For us, the recipe usually yields 8-9 waffles, enough for 3-4 people. It might differ for your waffle iron.
