Bizzarely enough we can buy them at Trader Joe's (rarely go there) or
the large Asian market which now also stocks items from Europe.
Here's a Dutch recipe (my translation) to make your own!
waffels:
200 gm butter
75 gm light brown sugar
250 gm flour
pinch salt
12 1/2 gm yeast
3-4 tbs milk
1 egg
Melt the butter. Knead together the flour,sugar, salt, the egg and the
butter together to make a smooth dough. Dissolve the yeast in a little
milk and let it stand a few minutes. Knead the yeast with the dough and
let it rise for about an hour.
Make small marble-sized balls and cook in a waffle iron [needs to be a
flat iron such as used to make pizelles] until golden brown. Let cool
Syrup:
150 g syrup [cane syrup-might work with corn syrup]
100 g dark brown sugar
150 g butter
pinch cinnamon
Melt the syrup, sugar and cinnamon in a small pan.When it's hot, beat in
the butter in small pieces.
Split the waffles, smear some filling between and assemble them again.
[I just use two waffles!]
