Servings: 24 1/2 cookie servings
Ingredients
Waffle Cookie
- 1 1/2 cups salted butter softened
- 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
Vanilla Buttercream + Toppings
- 1/2 cup salted butter softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- milk to thin as needed
- maple syrup for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°.
- To make the cookies, cream together the butter and sugars with a stand mixer.
- Scrape the sides and add in the eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
- Add the flour and baking powder to the mixer and mix until the cookie dough comes together.
- Scoop and roll the cookies- use a generous 1/3 cup of dough for each cookie. Roll the cookies into a ball and then flatten the ball into a circle that is about 1/2 inch thick and arrange on a cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Place 6 cookies on each tray.Using either a skewer or the back of a thin wooden spoon, press the waffle pattern into the cookie. Create 4 grooves vertical and then 4 grooves horizontal.
- Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until the cookies have spread slightly and the centers of the cookies puff up and no longer look wet and glossy.
- Once you pull the cookies out of the oven, make the buttercream by creaming the butter until smooth. Add 1 cup of powdered sugar at a time, mixing until incorporated before adding more.
- Add in your vanilla and then just a splash of milk as needed to help bring the powdered sugar together with the butter. You want to keep this as thick as possible.
- Once all of the powdered sugar has been added, use a small cookie scoop to scoop a dollop of buttercream onto your still warm cookie.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and eat warm with a fork.
