10 MINUTES RECIPE
This waffles recipe is very useful for any preparation featuring ice cream and can be adapted to any taste. Waffles certainly recall ice cream cones; however, they are much more tasteful than industrial products, and the result will be extraordinary with a very little effort.
In this version, dark cocoa powder and hazelnuts are used, giving waffles a marvelous nutella-like flavor. I love them with raspberry sorbet and cherries in syrup, a combination which reminds me of black forest cake.
You may personalize your own version of this recipe, too: add your own favorite dry fruits, season it with spices, try it with berries, or with different ice cream tastes. In a nutshell, give it a chance to seduce you: just 10 minutes and endorphins will be released.
Here are ingredients for 12 waffles:
80 g butter
100 g chopped hazelnuts
100 g flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 egg whites
salt
- Melt the butter over low heat in a saucepan
- Remove the pan from the heat and add chopped hazelnuts, a pinch of salt, cocoa powder and sugar. Stir vigorously until you obtain a uniform, firm mixture
- Beat egg whites until stiff. Add them to the mixture
- Cover the baking tray with some baking paper
- Then, take small nuts of dough with a spoon, and flatten them to form waffles with about 10 cm diameter. Be careful not to make waffles too thick, otherwise their final shape will not be beautiful
- Bake waffles at 180° for 5 minutes, until their edges begin to brown
- Take waffles out of the oven and, being careful not to burn your fingers, give them the shape that you prefer: use glasses upside down to make ice-cream bowls or roll them quickly with the help of cylinders from the kitchen to form cones
- Once they are cool and solidified, fill them with your favorite ice-cream. Enjoy!
