finding the perfect dessert

heh - Colleen knows about stroopwafels

Jessica introduced me to the art of stroopwafel eating and I'm grateful - these are amazing. If you manage to find some, try heating them slightly so the core is warm. I find 10 seconds in a microwave oven works well, or there is the hot chocolate trick;-)

A variation I tried, and probably one that your doctor would not approve, is to slightly heat two stroopwafels and put a very high quality vanilla ice cream between them. A bit messy and nearly perfect.

a tip about Steve's ice cream trick: eat it while still warm because the stroopwafels become so hard when cold that you could endanger a tooth if you push on instead of using common sense. Luckily, I suspect pretty much everyone who reads the blog has common sense.

bjarne mentioned his modification:

take a newly baked waffle (still warm), curl it up into a code, add two scoops or best vanilla ice cream, add a dollop of strawberry jam, add whipped cream. Yum! It's very easy to find in Copenhagen and to add insult to injury, it's often called "an American".
