Stroopwafel Love…

STROOPWAFELS. (def. from Wikipedia)
A stroopwafel is a very small, very thin waffle made from two thin layers of baked batter with a caramel-like syrup filling in the middle.
The batter for the waffles is made from flour, butter, brown sugar, yeast, milk, and eggs. Medium sized balls of batter are put on the waffle iron. When the waffle is baked, and while it is still warm, it is cut into two halfs. The warm filling, made from syrup, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon, is spread in between the waffle halfs, which glues them together.
Patrice and George love Stroopwafels! You can’t get true dutch specimens outside of the Netherlands too often, but when you do… YUM! Trader Joes have started carrying the above more often. Today they’ve augmented a housewarming soiree, pairing beautifully with BBQ, but we suggest warming them over a mug of coffee before dipping and dispatching them.
Stroopwafels- truly a cosmopolitan and continually enjoyable snack.
