Cookie Waffles Recipe

A cookie waffles recipe can include making the dough from scratch. But, what I’ve found is that if I want a super thin crispy cookie then this refrigerated pie crust works well. Another idea is to roll out pre-made or homemade dough really thin and put in your waffle iron. Another idea for your cookie waffles is to use wonton wrappers!

Depending upon the size of your appliance, place several pieces in. the hot waffle iron Close and wait for the green light to signal that the "cookie" is done.

You can change up the spices for the sugar—try ground cardamom, allspice, nutmeg, cloves. Of course, adjust amounts, particularly with cardamon which can be a stronger spice.

Another idea is to serve warm with ice cream, frozen yogurt, a dollop of plain Greek yogurt with honey and fruit—let your imagination soar!
