Hello! Today I am so happy to be Guest Posting over at my friend Siri’s blog Siriously Delicious. If you aren’t familiar- she is a funny and talented gal whose site I’ve loved reading for awhile. She just had a new baby, so she needed some blog-love while she’s adjusting to having two kids.
So pop on over to Siri’s site for the recipe to these easy and delicious homemade Vanilla Wafers! And- check back here on Friday for a delicious dessert that uses these yummy cookies. Can you guess what?
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk (or half and half)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cream the butter and sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Add the egg, vanilla, and milk and mix well. Sift in the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir well.
- Either scoop the dough into a large piping bag (or just a ziplock bag) and squeeze out rounds of dough. OR- just use a small scoop to portion 1inch rounds on a cookie sheet. Use your fingers to flatten slightly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the bottoms begin to turn golden brown. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Serve or store in an airtight container.

A work mate recommended me to your site. Thank you for the information.
Just made these for my icecream and chocolate sauce… needed something with a crunch. Whoa they are good!
I absolutely love DIY recipes, especially when it comes to wafers! Heading over to check out the recipe now!
Love these Audra, what we call wafers over here in the UK are those pink coloured brittle weaved-like textured things you thick in an ice cream. They’re a bit retro now. Love the difference. Will have to give them a try so I know what your ‘wafers’ are. :)
Thanks again for the AMAZING guest post!! xo
