How to Make Pirouline Wafers

Are you looking for a French delicacy for a special event? Try these stick-like wafers. A crispy outside surrounds a sweet filling, so it's great for everyone.

Ingredients

Yield: 3 dozen wafers

"Wrapper"

2 cups confectioners sugar
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp. salt
5/8 cup melted unsalted butter
6 egg whites
1 Tbsp heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract

Inner Filling

1 1/2 tsp corn syrup
4 oz chopped bittersweet chocolate (chips)
1/4 cup butter

Steps

1
Preheat your oven to 425 °F (218 °C) and grease 2 baking sheets.
2
Mix together all the ingredients, until they are all well blended together.

3
Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 2 or more hours.
4
Spoon about a tablespoon worth of dough onto one baking sheet. Spread them out until they are in the shape of an oval and are approximately 6" by 3". You should be able to fit only about 4 "cookie-wafers" on each baking sheet.
5
Bake the wafers for 6 minutes.
6
Prepare the inner filling, mixing all those ingredients together.
7
Remove the wafers from the baking sheet, and place them on a clean surface.
8
Drop some of the filling onto the wafer, and make sure to spread the filling until the filling not quite reaches the edges of the wafer.
9
Use a chopstick to roll the wafer&filling pieces up. DO not let them cool, so work quickly, otherwise they'll be too stiff to roll and hard to fix. The filling will become burnt, if you leave them on to bake a few moments longer, and it's a pain to have to rework the chocolate into the cookie again.

Question

Do I leave the 425-degree oven on the whole time the dough is in the fridge?

Community Answer

No, start to preheat the oven about 15-20 minutes before you take the dough out of the fridge. It would be unwise to leave the oven on at such a high temperature for two hours.
