Ingredients
-
4 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 cup butter, melted
-
¾ cup white sugar
-
¼ cup lukewarm milk
-
1 egg
-
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
Filling:
-
1 cup molasses or black treacle
-
1 ⅓ cups soft brown sugar
-
¼ cup butter
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
-
Combine flour, 1 cup melted butter, white sugar, milk, egg, and yeast in a large bowl. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise, about 45 minutes.
-
Heat treacle, brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter, and cinnamon in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted together, 3 to 5 minutes. Mix well until filling is smooth.
-
Preheat a shallow waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
-
Knead dough briefly and divide it into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, or as needed to fit your waffle iron.
-
Bake 1 ball of dough the preheated iron until golden brown and iron stops steaming, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove with a cake spatula. Press down with a round cutter to trim edges for a perfect circle. Carefully slice horizontally into 2 rounds while still hot. Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of the filling on each round and sandwich together. Repeat with remaining dough.
Cook's Note:
Making stroopwafels does require a special shallow waffle iron, as regular waffle irons will produce waffles too thick for this purpose. Try finding a stroopwafel iron, if possible, or improvise with either a pizzelle iron or waffle ice cream cone iron.
