WAFFLE CONES

Steps:

• Scrape vanilla bean seeds into a small saucepan over medium heat; add butter and cook until melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk vanilla butter, brown sugar, egg whites, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl; add flour and beat until batter is smooth.
• Preheat a waffle cone maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Pour batter into the preheated waffle maker and cook according to instructions.
• Immediately wrap around a cone-shaped dowel or press into a bowl-shaped mold. Let each cone or bowl cool for a few minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

PIZZELLE WAFFLE CONES

Steps:

• Beat the eggs and gradually beat in the sugar until the mixture is creamy.
• Stir in the melted butter and vanilla.
• Combine the flour and baking powder, and then add it to the mixture. Blend it in well.
• Drop about 4 tsp of the batter into a heated pizelle iron, and cook both sides over medium-high heat for about 1 minute each, or until golden brown.
• Remove the waffle from the pizelle iron and immediately shape it into a cone while it is still pliable.

PIZZELLE WAFFLE CONES

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, beat the sugar into the egg unti it is thickened and pale yellow. Beat in the butter and vanilla. Gently stir in the flour. Do not overmix or the pizelle may become tough. Allow the batter to rest at room temperature at least 15 minutes.
• Lightly grease your pizelle iron with vegetable oil spray. Preheat the iron on the stove over medium heat (if you're using an electric model, follow the manufacturer's directions). Use 1 1/2 tbls of batter for a 5 inch pizelle iron, and 2 tbls for an 8 inch pizelle iron. Close the iron and cook the pizelle for 30 seconds on one side. Turn the iron over and continue to cook until lightly golden, about 1 minute more. Carefully peel the soft cookie off the iron and roll it around a cone-shaped mold, sealing the point (or if like me just use 4 bowls of same shape and size, inverted, lay cookie over bottom of bowl, it will rest itself around the sides- this makes cone bowls that are soooo darned pretty). Repeat with remaining batter. The cones will harden as they cool. Remove the cones from the molds when completely cool.
