I love these things and always pick some up when lucky enough to find them which isn't often. There are dedicated stroopwafel wafel makers on the market but I recently discovered my waffle cone maker can be used as a substitute so game on. Make a sweet, buttery, stiff, yeasted dough and let it rise for 45 minutes or so to begin constructing this world famous cookie. While the dough is resting make the filling. This can be made with treacle, golden syrup, or mild molasses if you are going that route. The other popular option is caramel. I mixed mild molasses with corn syrup to lighten the flavor a bit because I like all things molasses. Sorry, no pics of that Heat up the waffle cone maker and start pumping out the cookies. Each waffle take between 40 and fifty seconds to complete so it goes pretty fast. Remove the finished waffle and cut with a pastry round before splitting it in half while they are still warm. They harden as they cool so you must work quickly. Add a dollop of cooled filling, close them up and let them harden. The traditional way to serve these cookies in over a hot beverage. Coffee, teas, hot chocolate are all contenders. I'm a coffee guy so there is no contest here. The hot coffee steams the cookie and softens the thin gooey sweet filling. It return, the cookie keeps the coffee hot. Its is a wonderful idea and makes for quite a nice breakfast treat. Mmmmmm.... Stroopwafels!!! Recipe here
