Waffle Iron Cookies

#ChristmasCookiesWeek

For my third Christmas Cookies Week recipe, I wanted to try a little something different.  I ran across this recipe for Waffle Iron Cookies from Taste of Home on Pinterest, and they looked so fun to make! Though I own two waffle irons, both of them are considered "Belgian" models. I used the one that seemed more shallow of the two, and just allowed extra time for them to cook.
 
This post is sponsored in conjunction with ChristmasCookiesWeek.  I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the ChristmasCookiesWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

The original recipe called for a dusting of powdered sugar, but I thought I'd make them a little more festive with a glaze and some sprinkles.  I love how they collect in the little squares. Since my iron was a little deeper than a regular one, I got 24 cookies from the recipe. They disappeared very, very quickly.  Thanks so much to Judy T. for sharing her recipe!

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract.
