MARTHA'S STROOPWAFELS

Steps:

• Wafels: Heat an electric nonstick waffle-cone iron. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; set aside.
• In another large bowl, whisk together eggs. Whisk in sugar until well combined; whisk in extracts. While whisking, slowly add cooled butter in a steady stream until batter is smooth. Add flour mixture and whisk until thoroughly combined. Transfer batter to a large pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round pastry tip. Pipe batter into a 2-inch circle in center of heated waffle-cone iron. Close lid and lock with clasp. Cook until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Using a small offset spatula, remove waffle and immediately transfer to a cutting board. Using a 3 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out cookies; let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Caramel Filling: Combine sugar, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Without stirring, cook, carefully swirling, until sugar dissolves. Without stirring, continue to cook, carefully swirling, until dark amber in color, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low and slowly add cream, stirring with a wooden spoon until combined. Add vanilla seeds, butter, and salt; stir until is smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl; set aside to cool slightly.
• Spread caramel filling onto bottoms of half the cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently to spread filling to edges.

STROOPWAFFELS II

Steps:

• Preheat a non-sitck pizzelle iron. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
• In large bowl, whisk together the eggs and 3/4 cup sugar until well blended. Whisk in the vanilla and lemon extracts. Slowly pour in the melted butter while whisking briskly then slowly mix in the dry ingredients.
• Spoon or pipe 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter onto the preheated pizzelle iron. Close the lid and seal with the clasp. Cook for 50 to 60 seconds before removing with a small spatula. Cool on wire racks.
• To make the caramel glaze: In a small saucepan combine remaining 1 cup of sugar with corn syrup and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat without stirring until the mixture reduces to an amber colored syrup. Reduce heat and quickly whisk in the heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time. Strain the caramel sauce if necessary and transfer to a bowl to cool. Spread caramel sauce between cookies to form sandwiches.

STROOPWAFELS

Steps:

• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
