- Filling.
- Blend butter, icing sugar and vanilla together.
- If desired tint pink or green (which I would; the picture is great).
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the wafers will taste. This is especially true for the butter, sugar, and flour.
- Make sure the butter is cold. This will help the wafers to be light and flaky.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the wafers tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help the wafers to hold their shape.
- Roll the dough out thinly. The thinner the dough, the crispier the wafers will be.
- Bake the wafers until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the wafers cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from seeping out.
Conclusion:
Swedish cream wafers are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover egg whites.
