Marthas Stroopwafels Recipes

MARTHA'S STROOPWAFELS

Steps:

• Wafels: Heat an electric nonstick waffle-cone iron. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; set aside.
• In another large bowl, whisk together eggs. Whisk in sugar until well combined; whisk in extracts. While whisking, slowly add cooled butter in a steady stream until batter is smooth. Add flour mixture and whisk until thoroughly combined. Transfer batter to a large pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round pastry tip. Pipe batter into a 2-inch circle in center of heated waffle-cone iron. Close lid and lock with clasp. Cook until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Using a small offset spatula, remove waffle and immediately transfer to a cutting board. Using a 3 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out cookies; let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Caramel Filling: Combine sugar, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Without stirring, cook, carefully swirling, until sugar dissolves. Without stirring, continue to cook, carefully swirling, until dark amber in color, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low and slowly add cream, stirring with a wooden spoon until combined. Add vanilla seeds, butter, and salt; stir until is smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl; set aside to cool slightly.
• Spread caramel filling onto bottoms of half the cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently to spread filling to edges.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, melted butter, sugar, yeast, milk and egg. When the dough becomes to stiff to stir, turn out onto a floured surface and knead by hand for a few minutes. Set aside to rise for 45 minutes.
• To make the filling, heat the molasses, brown sugar, remaining butter and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir to blend, and set aside.
• Preheat a pizzelle iron. Knead the dough briefly, and divide the dough into 2 inch balls, or a size compatible with your pizzelle iron pattern. Press the balls in the preheated iron, and cook until the iron stops releasing steam, or until the waffles are golden brown.
• Carefully remove with a knife or spatula, and split in half horizontally (like pocket bread) while they are still warm. Don't wait too long, otherwise they will break. Spread filling on the insides, and put the halves back together.

• In another large bowl, whisk eggs. Slowly add sugar, and continue mixing until well blended. Whisk in vanilla and lemon extracts. Slowly add cooled butter in a steady stream, whisking continuously until batter is smooth.
• Slowly add flour mixture, and keep whisking until flour is completely incorporated into batter. Do not overmix.
• Fill a pastry bag fitted with a #4 Ateco plain tip with batter. Pipe 1 1/2 tablespoons batter in a circle around the center of each pattern on the heated pizzelle iron. Close and seal with clasp. Cook until golden brown, 50 to 60 seconds. Using a small spatula, release and remove cookies, and transfer to a wire rack until cool.
• Using kitchen shears, carefully trim each cookie to the original shape of the pattern, removing any excess around edges. Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons caramel on half the cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently to evenly spread caramel. Filled cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
