Childhood Waffles

These are those very grandma's waffles from childhood - crispy, thin, with a bright buttery flavor. The batter whips up in ten minutes, and you can bake them in an old heavy waffle iron or a modern one. I confidently recommend making these and judging for yourself - enjoy!

Tips

• While these waffles are still hot, they're easy to roll into tubes for filling with cream.
• Use the first waffle as a test run to dial in the baking time for your waffle iron.
