Waffle Cookies

Ingredients needed
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup maple syrup
2 eggs

To begin, mix the dry and wet ingredients in separate bowls then combine and mix well. You'll end up with a big blob of gooey goodness. Probably ate a little too much of this dough....I couldn't help myself. We all do it, no judging. 

Next, heat up your waffle iron. Try to stay away from Belgium waffle makers, they're a little too deep for this cookie, regular waffle irons work fabulous. Coat the iron with some spray on Pam or any non-stick spray you have laying around the house. Once the iron heats up, drop a spoonful (about 1 Tbl) of the dough onto each section of the iron. Like so....

Close the lid and let cook for about 1 1/2 minutes. After a few rounds I let them sit in there for about 2 1/2 minutes for crisper cookies. You can leave them in there for more or less time depending on your cookie preference. They come out looking like this....

A miniature waffle!!! So cute!

For the icing I used some left over frosting that my mother made for spritzer cookies the day before. But you can make really easy icing by melting 4 oz of either white chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate chips. Once the cookies have cooled dip the cookies into the icing and use sprinkles for some bling bling on top. They're great without icing too, pour some maple syrup on them and eat them for a quick breakfast!! Dessert for breakfast, gotta love it.
