Waffle Emergency!

Ok...I would not use confectioners sugar (aka powdered) unless you are dusting the top after they've been fully cooked...ie. like some Belgian style waffles. All of the recipes I've seen call for just sugar...so the generic reference would Imply a standard granulated sugar. I would not go out of my way to get castor sugar unless it called for it or I was experimenting.

Thanks everyone..My silly recipe book that came with the Mickey waffle maker said Icing sugar,so the first batch was Yuch .So Ive made the new batch with granulated sugar.Awesome..Thats with Vanilla extract,cinnamon,lemon juice.The reason I'am making them today is we are snowed in.It has been snowing heavy since midnight,Thats 13 hrs ago..The snow has completely covered my car in our driveway.Our front window is almost completely covered..no satellite TV.The police have issued a severe snow weather storm for the next 48 hours..In all my years living in the south west coast of Scotland,Ive never seen it so bad.It is like a scene from the film " The day after tomorrow " Thank god for waffles & whisky.:( P.S. Our electric keeps going off & on..

Is their no respect for Spring? I am sorry that you are in the midst of such crummy weather. Waffles and whiskey sounds like just the thing. Hey, instead of the vanilla and lemon juice, to change it up a bit, try a little rum. I bet that would be delish. If you happen to be snowed in with some berries, wow that could be one happy Mickey waffle. On a side note, if you imbibe enough, it might help you think the flickering lights mean you are in the Haunted Mansion!

I have to say, I'm still confused why the recipe for the waffle batter would call for powdered sugar vs. granulated; however, as I thought on this over the course of the day- I got what I consider to be a fabulous idea. ;) You could make hot glazed waffles with whatever icing sugar you have left. Icing sugar is ideal for a glaze and if you can have glazed donuts - why not a waffle? :D
