Instructions
Step 1
*Beat* the eggs and sugar together on high speed until they become fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add in the *cooled, melted butter*, and combine on low speed until well mixed.
Step 2
Slowly fold in the flour, carefully mixing with a mixer until you achieve a smooth consistency. *Your dough is now ready.*
Step 3
Warm a skillet slightly and then lower the heat to minimum. Spread a tablespoon of the batter on the skillet using a silicone spatula, ensuring it's nice and thin. The thinner the batter, the *crispier* the pastry will turn out.
Once spread, increase the heat to medium and cook each side until golden brown. Remove the wafer from the heat, turn the heat back to low, and quickly roll it into a tube shape.
Step 4
Fill the pastry tubes with your desired amount of sweetened condensed milk. Indulge in your *homemade* delight and enjoy!
Servings
Once your delicious pastry tubes are ready, the ways to enjoy them are practically endless! Serve them warm on a cool evening with a comforting cup of tea or coffee, perfect for snuggling up by the fireplace. βοΈ
Alternatively, cool them down and add them to a rich dessert platter. Accompany with fresh berries π for a burst of color and flavor, and drizzle with chocolate sauce for an extra touch of indulgence.
If you're hosting a party, these treats make wonderful finger food that will delight your guests. Feel free to jazz them up with some powdered sugar on top for a fancy finish. β¨
Equipment
Essential for blending the ingredients to the right consistency. Make sure it's on high speed when beating eggs and sugar for maximum fluffiness.
Perfect for evenly spreading the batter in the pan. Its flexibility helps create thin, crispy layers.
A good non-stick surface is important for easily flipping your wafer without it sticking to the pan. Ensure moderate heat to prevent burning.
Variations
For those seeking gluten-free alternatives, replace the wheat flour with a gluten-free blend. This way you can enjoy the same crispy texture without the gluten. πΎ
To make these vegan, substitute eggs with a plant-based egg replacer and use vegan butter. Opt for a coconut milk condensed version for a dairy-free filling thatβs equally luscious. π₯₯
