These little beauties are my favorite travel snack. They’re Italian (of course) and taste like flakey heaven. I can’t have some of the other GF wafers out there because they use soy oil, but these make up for the lack.
It all comes down to the chocolate. The smallest flake is ambrosia.
They come in packs of three, each individually wrapped. We order them in bulk.
And then ration the precious, precious chocolate…
Chewy, moist, almost toffee-ish bars. And? Really simple.
Source: The Gluten Free Pantry, alternate recipe on side of packet.
Modifications: Used 1/4 Xantham Gum + 1/4 cup water to replace 1 egg. Oven time cut down by approx. 10 minutes.
Batter type: Stiff and sticky, slow-moving lump.
Delish. Deevine. Only trouble? We tipped it out of the pan too soon, as it should be served hot with ice cream. Unfortunately, I misjudged the gooey/heat ratio and a good chunk of the bottom stayed behind. I don't care. It is just that good.
The insides are very gooey and the edges got crusty. Not great finger-food as they're a bit sticky, but very good.
Ideal: Make a big batch for Thanksgiving or Xmas and serve to the family with vanilla ice cream. We certainly will.
