Traditional East Frisian New Year's Cakes (Cones) - Ostfriesisch

"This is a traditinal recipe, that apparently the women in former times could not do without on new years day. My father told me, that after the war, the 3 waffle makers in the village were handed around, so that every women could offer these cakes with a nice cup of east frisian tea (prepared with cream and demerara sugar) to their new years wellwishers. They taste a little like ice cream cones and should be prepared ahead so the spices can work their magic.Store in an airtight container. They make a nice xmas give away. You need a flat waffle iron."

directions

  • Dissolve the sugar in the water and mix with all remaining ingredients.
  • Leave to stand, preferably overnight.
  • Heat a flat waffle iron (not those you would use for making Belgian waffles), spread a spoonful of the mixture evenly on the bottom part and cover.
  • Lift the top several times until desired colouring.
  • Roll immediately into cones, since they will harden as they cool.
  • Proceed in the same manner with the rest of the dough.
  • Carefully place the cold cones in an airtight container until use.
