Galettes

These cookies are made with a special galette iron. If you don't have one, try a pizzelle iron. One reader tells us that even a waffle iron works fine.

1 lb butter, melted
6 eggs
2 cups sugar
2 cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla or rum flavoring
1 teaspoon baking powder
6 cups flour

Sift flour and baking powder and mix in rest of ingredients. Chill dough. Drop spoonfuls on a pre-heated iron. Hold over hot stove and bake on each side for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes.

My grandmother use to make these cookies every christmas. My mother and I continue the tradition to this very day. I am going to be moving in a few months and have yet to find a galette iron of my own. Does anyone have a galette iron they are willing to sale? Or know where i can find a Belgi galette iron? I highly reccomend these cookies for everyone. Also, for and extra sweet and pretty accent, try dipping half the cookie in chocolate. mmmm

My Grandmother made these cookies for me when I was a little girl. (I called them waffle cookies) On a request to her for cookies, she bought me an iron, she lived in Kansas, and sent it to me along with the recipe and said, "Make them yourself." You quickly learn why you are only make them at special times of the year. I have made these cookies for family and friends for over 35 years. I realize what a treasure it is to have a Belgi Galette Iron!!!

Great! Easy and fast to make! They're sweet yet not overpowering. Great for gifts at Christmas! Wrap them in bags and give them out!
