Caramel Wafers

No, no actual recipe this week (I'm going to Hawaii TOMORROW!!! and I don't feel like cooking). I was at Costco this week and I happened past these little beauties. Yes, the windmill caught my eye, and the Dutch kids, and the word 'Dutch' in the title. It doesn't hurt that I'm a sucker for caramel. The cookies are a bit spendy ($9.79 for a box of 54 cookies), but they were surprisingly good - and there were quite a few cookies in the box. The next time Ariminta Rose Cassandra Dawlish Darling is eating wafer cookies in Holland, I'm going to imagine that these are the ones.

Verdict: Fifteen year old son: 'Did you make these?' Me: 'Nope, bought them.' 15 year old: 'Please get the stuff to make them.' Dr. van der Stevejinck and nineteen year old son both found them edible. Edible enough to inhale them like they were a pair of industrial vacuums.

    Hi! Love your site. Read it every day. I saw that you bought Caramel Cookie Waffles at Costco. We have a Dutch bakery here. 2 brothers from Holland (very tall) Jan and Han are their names. They make their own CCW every week and they sell them locally and have a website caramelcookiewaffle.com (Stroopwafels) They are fantastic and the best when you have them warm for the old fashioned waffle maker they have. I bring them to my friends in CA when ever I visit. AND when anyone comes to Billings we go to lunch there!

  2. Wow. Sometimes having to be gluten free just stinks.

  4. Wow, we may have to have Suzanne send photos of the CCW's and the TDB's. Not sure exactly which I want to see more. As I've caught my limit with Prof. K, I guess I'll have to order the wafers. Sad but true. But I still want to see both. ooo la la (I'm referring to the CCW here. Really.)
