Ice Cream Waffle Cups
Ingredients
- 12 ounce Butter
- 4 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1.5 cup Honey
- 1.5 cup Egg
- 4 cup All-Purpose Flour
Instructions
- Whip butter in mixer until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and mix till smooth.
- Slowly add honey and egg whites.
- At flour 1/3 at a time and mix till smooth.
- Can use right away but works better when chilled.
- Cut out desired size circle in a piece of cardboard.
- I use a circle the size of a cereal bowl but bigger will work just as well.
- Preheat oven to 300F.
- Lay a non-stick pad on a cookie sheet.
- Then lay your cut out down on the sheet and spread a very thin but even layer of batter on it.
- Fill your sheet up then place in oven for a couple of minutes.
- You are going to have to watch it closely.
- When they start to bubble but are still pale it means they are getting close to being done.
- Pull them out when they are golden brown and immediately place them inside a bowl to shape.
- Sometimes a bowl of cold water is nice to stick your fingers in if they get burnt.
- You can make smaller circles and roll them up like a cannoli.
- They are great dipped in chocolate and sprinkled with toasted almonds and or toasted coconut.
- You can also fill them with whipped cream!
- **If you want add other flavors like almond extract, coconut extract, lemon extract, vanilla extract or what ever you heart desires, it adds a nice twist to the honey flavor!
