Swedish Waffles Recipes

Steps:

• Berry compote: In a small saucepan, combine berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Gently heat until sugar is dissolved. Crush about half of the berries with a wooden spoon; allow the rest to soften but maintain their shape, 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Waffles: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the ingredients and pour in the milk and vanilla; whisk thoroughly. Then whisk in warm (not hot) melted butter until fully incorporated. The batter should be thin.
• Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions. Brush waffle iron on both sides with some of the remaining melted butter. Ladle enough batter to evenly cover the lower plate. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Repeat in batches with remaining batter; make 6-7 waffles.
• Assembly: Place waffles on a serving platter, spoon berries on top, and serve.

Steps:

• Place egg yolks into a large mixing bowl with the sugar, and beat until light and frothy. Mix in the vanilla sugar and water until evenly combined, and stir in half the melted butter, half the buttermilk, half the flour. When mixture is smooth, mix in remaining butter, buttermilk, flour, cardamom, and salt, and beat again to a smooth batter.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they form stiff peaks; gently fold the egg whites into the batter, incorporating as much volume as possible.
• Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions.
• Spoon about 1/3 cup of batter into the preheated waffle iron, close the lid, and cook until the waffle is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove waffle to a plate. If using a heart-shaped iron, break the waffle into individual hearts to serve. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a bowl, cream together 1 cup butter and the flour until smooth and creamy. Stir in heavy cream. Scrape dough into a ball.
• Sprinkle the white sugar on a cutting board. Roll out the dough to about a 1/4-inch thickness on the sugared surface. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut dough into 24 circles. Using the rolling pin, roll each circle into a slightly oval shape. Place cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges of the cookies get very lightly brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool slightly on cookie sheet; then transfer them to cooling racks using a spatula.
• To make the filling, mix together 1/2 cup of butter, confectioners' sugar, egg yolk, and Swedish arrack punsch in a bowl. Beat until mixture is well blended and creamy.
• To assemble, spread about a rounded teaspoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie and place another cookie, bottom side down, on the filling to form a sandwich. Repeat with the rest of the cookies.
