Tired of boring, flat cookies? Stop cooking them in the oven. Dust off your waffle iron and start thinking outside the box.
Mix up your cookie dough. I like the Tollhouse recipe that's on the back of the bag chocolate chips. Why? It's simple, it tastes good, and I don't have to look hard to find it. Take some Pam for Baking cooking spray and hit the plates of the waffle iron really good. Spoon in some dough and smoosh the iron closed. It you get dough seeping out the sides, you got a little too ambitious with the dough. Next time, cut back.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side. The recipe for the cookies would tell you 8-10 minutes in the oven. If you let them go that long, you'll need new teeth when you finish eating. At 6-7 minutes, the cookies will still appear soft to the touch. Leave the iron open and away from the heat (Turn the iron off if you're using an electric one and not a stove top one) for about one minute. Using a fork, start peeling up the corners of the waffle cookie until you pull up enough to grab it with your hand. Set it on the baking rack to cool and repeat until you run out of dough.
Your finished product should look something like this. Admire my vicious china. It's almost better than the cookies.
Baking cookies this way is pretty time consuming as you can only make about four cookies every ten minutes. I suggest cutting the recipe down or making regular cookies with some of the dough while you're making waffle cookies with the rest.
