Stroopwafels are delicious Dutch treats made from two thin layers of baked dough with a syrup filling in the middle. They originated in Gouda, South Holland, and have become popular worldwide. Here’s a bit more about them:

Description

• Ingredients: The dough is made from flour, butter, brown sugar, yeast, milk, and eggs. The filling typically consists of syrup, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon.
• Preparation: The dough is pressed in a hot waffle iron until crisp. While still warm, the edges are removed, and a warm syrup filling is spread between the wafers before reassembling the waffle.

History

• Origin: Stroopwafels were first made in the late 18th or early 19th century by bakers in Gouda who repurposed scraps and crumbs by sweetening them with syrup.
• Popularity: By the 20th century, stroopwafels began to appear in other cities, and factory-made versions were introduced. Today, they are sold at markets, by street vendors, and in supermarkets worldwide.
