Easy Mini Waffle Maker Recipe: Waffle Cookies
These waffle cookies are delicious, melt-in-your-mouth cookies made. You can use a mini waffle maker or a regular one for this recipe. They are crispy on the outside with a chewy interior and irresistible cookie flavors!
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- nonstick cooking spray optional
Serving (optional)
- powdered sugar
- chocolate sauce or caramel sauce or maple syrup
Instructions
- Turn on the waffle iron to preheat for at least 5 minutes while you make the batter.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the butter with the sugars until fluffy using a hand mixer.
- Beat in eggs one at a time and add the vanilla.
- Stir in the flour, baking powder and salt until fully incorporated.
- By now the waffle iron should be hot. Open the lid and spray with optional nonstick cooking spray. Form 2-inch balls of cookie dough using your fingers or a cookie scoop. Then place one ball onto the center of each section of the waffle iron.
- Close the lid and cook for 2 to 4 minutes until golden brown (time will vary by waffle iron). When the waffle cookies are ready, transfer to a cooling rack. If they are sticking, sliding a chopstick along the grooves to dislodge.
- Serve warm and dust with powdered sugar if desired. To do this, place a tablespoon of powdered sugar in a sieve and shake gently on top of the waffle cookies. You can also drizzle with chocolate sauce, caramel sauce or maple syrup for a fancier presentation.
Notes
- Storage: To store for later, cool completely and place in resealable plastic bags or airtight containers. They will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
