Last week, we hosted our new friend Eline from the Netherlands. If she wasn’t sweet enough to begin with, she brought us me these delicious dutch cookies…karmelstroopwafels. Imagine two thin, crunchy cinnamonish waffles with caramel in the middle along with a cup of coffee. Absolutely wonderful. I’m so thankful that I couldn’t read ‘how many calories’ on the back of the foreign package because if you can’t read it, you can’t count it. And I’m sticking to that theory.
My family had a great time showing Eline the sights (especially the food!) around here as this was her first visit to the US. Unfortunately, this week our dear Eline (and those delicious cookies) is/are gone. But we’ve promised that we’ll stay in touch. Now we’re back to our regular school/work routine plus I’ve got some pretty amazing news that I promise to share soon.
I wish I had seen this post before last Monday, when I bought a similar package of these caramel waffles. I did not like these at all. I was expecting a waffle cone flavour, and was not pleased by the hint of cinnamon AT ALL. :P
On another note – lovely blog! :)
I’m probably too late (since if you’re anything like me, these babies are long gone), but just a friendly tip….put this on top of your hot coffee cup for a minute or two. Warm gooey caramel-y goodness ~ pure bliss!!!!
