Now there is no reason not to have waffles all day long…

These waffle cookies remind me of fresh-made waffles and ice cream at the board boardwalk,

I’m not sure why….it must be the sweet smell of them baking or that slightly sweet lemony taste of lemonade I recall getting there too.

I have always loved waffles but have always really loved them with ice cream,

until making these waffle cookies. I will say the reason all the cookies didn’t make it in the photos is…

I ATE THEM.

I had NO self-control, I made three batches…

everyone kept eating them as I made them.

I said please save some so I can take photos…I’m sure they get tired of hearing that,

but it’s not going to change any time soon.

I tried little scoops and placing the dough on each separate area of the waffle iron, that did not work as well as placing one cup of dough and pressing it flat. They cooked better and came off the waffle iron easier.

They are lightly crisp outside and chewy inside.

These are firm enough you can pack them up and take them with you in your pocketbook…

I know this for sure…

they don’t crumble,

gotta love that about this type of cookie!
