These buttery cookies bake up chewy and crispy at the same time. Sprinkle these vanilla wafers with colored sugar or leave them as-is. Their simplicity is beauty enough! -Edith MacBeath, Gaines, Pennsylvania

VANILLA WAFER COOKIES THAT ARE BETTER THAN STOREBOUGHT



Vanilla Wafer Cookies That Are Better Than Storebought image

This recipe comes from my favorite cookbook from a church. It is simple, easy, inexpensive and delicious! Not to mention it tastes better than the vanilla wafers you can buy at the store! You can make the cookies bigger if you'd like, they just won't have as crispy of an outside. We like to add a slice of banana between two cookies, dip them in chocolate, and then freeze them (;

Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield approximately 70 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

7 ounces all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon aluminum free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature
3 1/2 ounces vanilla sugar
1 large egg
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon whole milk

Steps:

  • Position 1 oven rack in the top third of the oven and another in the bottom third. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and set aside. Cream the butter and vanilla sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl after 1 minute. Add the egg and incorporate on medium speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the mixer bowl. Add the vanilla extract and milk and blend on low speed for 15 seconds. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed just to incorporate. Chill the batter in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before scooping.
  • Scoop the batter in teaspoon-sized balls and arrange them on 2 parchment paper-lined half sheet pans, approximately 35 cookies per pan. Use the heel of your hand to slightly flatten each ball. Bake, 2 pans at a time, rotating the pans halfway through the baking, until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pans to a cooling rack to cool completely before removing the cookies from the pan.

VANILLA REFRIGERATOR WAFERS COOKIES



Vanilla Refrigerator Wafers Cookies image

I love Vanilla Wafers. I could actually eat an entire box in one sitting so I had to try to make these. I came as close as I could with these, and I can make enough to eat them without having to spend so much on the store bought boxes.

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 c butter or shortening
1/2 c confectioners' sugar
1/3 c sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 c cake flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 Tbsp water
1/8 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325° F. Cream together shortening or butter, eggs, vanilla, salt and sugars in a large bowl.
  • 2. Combine flour, baking powder and add to creamed mixture. Add 1 tbsp of water and combine mixing until dough forms a ball.
  • 3. Roll dough into 3/4 in balls and flatten slightly onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and cover. You can also use a piping bag with a large round tip and make a large "hershy kiss" type of cookie and pat down peek. I have done both ways and they both work great.

  • 6. Cool completely on rack--makes about 4 dozen cookies.

VANILLA WAFER COOKIES



Vanilla Wafer Cookies image

This is one of my favorite recipes from TOH. It is easy, it is cheap, and it is DELICIOUS! I think these are my family's favorite cookies. I have even made a batch with pasteurized eggs for making cookie dough ice cream! :) The cook time is for one batch in the oven. The dough freezes well; simply roll into a log and wrap in plastic wrap. Then just slice off cookies and bake (from frozen) according to directions.
