Rolled Wafers Recipe

Ingredients for Rolled Wafers Recipe

• ¼ cup butter
• ¼ cup milk
• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 7/8 cup bread flour
• ½ teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

1. Cream the butter, add sugar gradually, and milk drop by drop; then add flour and flavoring.
2. Spread very thinly with a broad, long-bladed knife on a buttered inverted dripping-pan.
3. Crease in three-inch squares, and bake in a slow oven until delicately browned.
4. Place pan on back of range, cut squares apart with a sharp knife, and roll while warm in tubular or cornucopia shape.
5. If squares become too brittle to roll, place in oven to soften.
6. If rolled tubular shape, tie in bunches with narrow ribbon.
7. These are very attractive, and may be served with sherbet, ice cream, or chocolate.
8. If rolled cornucopia shape, they may be filled with whipped cream just before sending to table.
9. Colored wafers may be made from this mixture by adding leaf green or fruit red.
10. If colored green, flavor with one-fourth teaspoon almond and three-fourths teaspoon vanilla.
11. If colored pink, flavor with rose.
12. Colored wafers must be baked in a very slow oven and turned frequently, otherwise they will not be of the uniform color that is desired.
