Waffle Cookies

I needed a chocolate fix.

Scratch that.  I wanted a chocolate fix this afternoon.  Blame it on the Food Network.  After watching, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" & seeing a chocolate cake, I immediately got up, grabbed my cookbook & went to baking.

I've been wanting to make these cookies for awhile, and the waffle iron was already out {hubby made waffles for breakfast} so I figured, "Why not."

These cookies start with a nice fudgy dough......thick and chocolatety.

 Plopped into a hot waffle iron {plopped because of it's thickness}

 And sprinkled with powdered sugar

 Lot's of powdered sugar.

 And because I have a Belgian waffle maker, my cookies came out thick & big.......but I don't mind ;)

 Give it a try.

Enjoy.

1. Preheat waffle iron
2. In a mixing bowl combine: butter, cocoa, sugar, eggs, & vanilla.
