WAFFLE COOKIES

So for a couple of months I have been making a homemade treat each week. I make them for two reasons: #1- My hubby takes them to work (and he shares, but they have starting putting in requests for things we have already made) #2- I want a yummy homemade treat each week for Paislee to eat. I want her to remember that there was always a yummy homemade treat each week when she was growing up. Paislee also loves to help make the treat and we count how many eggs, cups of sugar, etc we use. It is really shocking to me how she actually remembers how much of each ingredient we use each week. She also doesn't mind eating them throughout the week either. So anyways the reason for this post is tonight I was looking through a cook book I forgot I had and found a recipe for waffle cookies. We had everything we needed so Pais and I thought we would give the waffle cookies recipe a try. BIG, REALLY HUGE mistake!!! After you make the batter you cook the cookies on the waffle iron. I thought this was a great idea because the funny thing is we got one for our wedding that has NEVER been opened. Well let's just say it took 1 1/2 hours, to cook the stuid waffle cookies. You can only cook 2 cookies at a time and they take anywhere from 2-3minutes depending on how big they are. You can't do anything between each cookie because there isn't enough time to. So you stand there waiting for each set of cookies to get done. Then to top it off they aren't exactly anything special. They taste really plain and kinda boring. So anyone making a treat this week, I STRONGLY suggest to stay far, far away from waffle cookies.

I have never made waffle cookies nor do I ever want too. I have had waffle cookies before and I have thought the same thing..."nothing special"
Bummer :(

AND THEY USUALLY ONLY TAKE AOUT 30-45 SECONDS TO COOK. THAT IS SO ANNOYING THAT YOURS TAKES 1 1/2 MINUTES. THAT WOULD BUG.
