Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- ½ cup butter
- 2 whole large eggs
With everything at room temperature, break up two large eggs.
Eggs, sugar and milk
- 1 cup milk
- flour
Add a cup of milk, then the flour, then the melted and cooled butter; whisk to a silky, pourable but thick batter like a loose pancake batter.
Rest the batter so the flour hydrates and any lumps disappear.
- cocoa
- salt
Divide the batter: whisk cocoa and a little salt into one portion, thinning with a little milk if it thickens.
Cocoa and vanilla versions
- ¼ tsp cardamom
- orange zest
Add about a quarter teaspoon of cardamom and a little orange zest to a third portion.
- fresh ginger
- five spice
Add peeled grated fresh ginger and a little five spice to a fourth portion.
- vegetable oil
Heat the clamped iron on the stove over medium-low to medium, rotating it to heat both sides; oil an unused iron lightly.
Heating the iron
Spoon in a heavy spoonful of batter, close the iron, and cook, turning, until pale golden; the first one or two are tests.
Test cookies and dialling in
Lift off and roll while warm, or leave flat for ice cream sandwiches.
