Even though they just take a few minutes to prepare, these bacon-topped fried green beans taste like they have been cooking all day. Both members of our family and visitors adore them.

Reviews
I’d like flakybabe to use sour cream in place of whipping cream along with her other improvements to the recipe. It’s the way I’ve made waffles, or my mom before me, for 80 years
Followed EXACTLY(half n half) and I had thick, hefty waffles. Pretty disgusting, I added water to loosen, they were better after a little tweaking. Definitely not worth the calories.
I used half and half instead of heavy cream. They turned out wonderful! Best waffles ever!
I would say there was way too much butter and not enough flour. The ratios seemed off. Unlikely success, but it actually tasted good.
Excellent recipe! I replaced the vanilla sugar with extract. Other than that, I followed the recipe the first time I made it. These waffles don’t need any twinking, but, the 2nd time I made these I whipped the egg whites, the yolks and heavy cream each separately. They were light, crunchy on the exterior but soft and fluffy in the middle. This recipe is a keeper!
To die for! SOOO good!
wonderful!
delicious – but definitely a special occasions waffle recipe. To save calories you can use half milk/half cream
