Cookies and Waffle Irons

So I have this friend who make incredible cookies and cakes.  She hasn't really made cakes since being in Korea as our ovens are very tiny. The biggest pan I can get in my oven is a 9x13 and only one at a time. It gets even worse in the summer time as it is way to humid, not even hot, to turn the oven on in the house. I have to turn the ac on just to use the oven therefore I use the grill and my crock-pot a lot.  Anyway, last night my friend posted on her blog about making cookies in her waffle iron and they looked so cute. They are these tiny little 2-3 bite cookies, good when following Weight Watchers, and so easy to make.  I made some and decided that they would be even better just a little bit bigger and then topped with ice cream.

Here are the pictures from my waffle iron. 

Here is a plate of the small cookies. A few had been eaten by the time the picture got taken.

Here is the bigger version before vanilla ice cream.

Here it is with vanilla ice cream.

And now a happy little man eating a chocolate cookie waffle topped with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.

Now if I could figure out how to link my friends blog to this I would but all I can figure out is how to paste her recipe and directions into the blog.

Waffle Iron Cookies

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups flour

Pre-heat waffle iron. (And by that, I mean -- plug it in.) Cream butter and sugar in a small mixing bowl. Add eggs, salt, and baking powder. Mix well. Add cocoa powder and stir gently to combine. Mix in flour. The dough will be a little bit sticky. Lightly spray your waffle iron with pan spray. Drop 2-4 little blobs of chocolatey cookie dough goodness on the iron and close. Bake for exactly 60 seconds. Use a fork to lift the cookies out of the waffle iron. Serve as soon as they are cool to eat. Or...wait for a couple of hours and put some butter cream love and sprinkles on them.

If you get to make them I hope that you enjoy them as much as we did!
