Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, melted butter, granulated sugar, warm milk, egg, and yeast. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. If the dough becomes too stiff to stir, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. (10 minutes)

02

Step

Knead and Rise: Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until doubled in size. (45 minutes)

03

Step

Make the Caramel Filling: While the dough is rising, prepare the caramel filling. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the molasses, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Preheat and Prepare Pizzelle Iron: Preheat your pizzelle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly spray both plates with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Shape and Cook the Waffles: Gently deflate the risen dough. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 2-inch ball. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Cook the Stroopwafels: Place one ball of dough in the center of the preheated pizzelle iron. Close the iron and cook for 1 1/2 to 3 minutes, or until the stroopwafel is golden brown and crisp. (2 minutes per waffle)

07

Step

Assemble the Stroopwafels: Immediately remove the hot stroopwafel from the iron. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the stroopwafel in half horizontally. Spread a generous amount of warm caramel filling onto one half of the stroopwafel. Top with the other half, creating a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. (3 minutes per stroopwafel)

For a deeper caramel flavor, use dark molasses and dark brown sugar.
If the caramel filling becomes too thick, gently reheat it over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
Serve the stroopwafels warm for the best flavor and texture. They are also delicious with a cup of coffee or tea.
Store leftover stroopwafels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm in a toaster oven or microwave for a few seconds.

    The dough was a bit sticky, but adding a little extra flour helped. Will definitely make these again.

    These are amazing!!

  • Jarrett Johnston

    I didn't have a pizzelle iron, so I used a waffle iron. They weren't quite the same, but still delicious!

  • Calista Denesik

    A little tricky to slice at first, but once I got the hang of it, they turned out great. The caramel is amazing!

  • Francisca Waters

    I love it, will make again
