Belgi Galettes

Ingredients: • 2 pounds dark brown sugar • 1 pound butter • 7 eggs • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract • 6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour Directions: 1. In a large bowl, stir together the brown sugar and butter until smooth and creamy; then add eggs and vanilla, and beat well. Gradually stir in flour. Set bowl over a hot water bath, and stir to blend ingredients. Cover, and refrigerate overnight. 2. Preheat the galette iron. 3. Shape dough into 1 inch balls and place in the galette iron. Close the iron and cook the cookies. This should take about 30 seconds in an electric galette iron or 2 to 4 minutes in a handheld iron over a medium flame. Carefully remove cookies and cool on wire racks.
