How to Make Waffle Cones Or Bowls

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter (cooled) and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. The batter will be slightly thick.
  4. Heat your waffle cone maker or pizzelle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  5. Drop 1-2 heaping tablespoons of batter onto the hot surface of the maker (depending on the size of your maker). Close the lid and bake for 30-40 seconds, or until golden brown.
  6. Carefully remove the waffle. If making cones, immediately roll the warm waffle around a cone-shaped mold (such as an inverted custard cup or cone shaper) and hold until cool and set. For bowls, gently press the warm waffle over the outside of a custard cup or small bowl. For squares, let cool slightly then cut with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  7. Taste test the first waffle to check for desired crispness and adjust baking time as needed.
  8. Continue baking the remaining batter, quickly shaping each waffle as soon as it's removed from the machine.
  9. Once cooled completely, store the waffle cones, bowls, or squares in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
