I found when preparing for the Cookie Exchange that there are a number

of wafer recipes out there on the web, including some chocolate ones
that sounded interesting. I was originally was going to do some chocolate
wafer sandwiches with rum filling and some regular wafers with chocolate
filling or vice-versa :-). However, from earlier comments on the list it
sounded like another person (Johnnae?) was going to make wafers, so I
desisted. Plus I wasn't sure the cream filling would keep for the shipping
time. So y'all got the Texas/regional pralines instead. :-)


And just in case you missed it previously, here's some of the period versions

again:

Please let us know if you try any of these, how they work for you. Especially
if you try the Polish saffron wafers.
