[Sca-cooks] Sugar Waffles?

[Marion Waldegrave]

I make this every christmas time, being Scandahoooovian means i have  
too!, the trick with these is TEMPERATURE! If you do not have the  
iron at the right temp, and the oil at the right temp and the batter  
at the right temp, the cookie will stick to the iron!  I have eight  
different designs to dip and you can find most of these online or at  
a Scandinavian store! Sorry am SO far behind and missing TONS of mail!
