stroopwaffle recipe

Ingredients:

'murican 4 cups all-purpose flour. 1 1/8 cups butter, melted. 3/4 cup white sugar. 2 (.25 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast. 1/4 cup warm milk. 1 egg. 1 1/2 cups molasses. 1 1/3 cups packed brown sugar. 1/3 cup butter. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.

Rest of the world 500g plain flour 250g butter, melted 150g caster sugar 4 1/2 teaspoons dried active baking yeast 60ml lukewarm milk 1 egg

Filling 350g treacle 200g brown soft sugar 50g butter 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

The cooking guide:

Step one:

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.

Step two:

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. Also don't eat, save it. I said save it, put the spoon down!

Step three:

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.

Step four:

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.

Step five:

Enjoy your stroopwafel, they're best when they're still warm.
