French Cookies (Belgi Galettes) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 pounds dark brown sugar
1 pound butter
7 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Preparation

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.
Preheat the galette iron.
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.
