Homemade Wafer Sticks

Ingredients

• 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp cornstarch
• ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
• ¼ tsp salt
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup (120ml) milk
• ¼ cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional Filling
• Chocolate spread
• Vanilla cream
• Hazelnut cream
• Caramel

Method

1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, sugar, and salt.

2. Add the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.

3. Preheat a wafer stick maker or pizzelle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

4. Spoon a small amount of batter onto the hot plate and cook for 1–2 minutes, or until lightly golden.

5. Immediately remove the wafer and quickly roll it around a thin wooden dowel or wafer stick roller while still hot.

6. Hold for a few seconds until it firms up, then carefully remove the dowel.

7. Repeat with the remaining batter.

8. Allow the wafer sticks to cool completely until crisp.

9. If desired, pipe chocolate spread, vanilla cream, hazelnut cream, or caramel into the center of each wafer stick.
