I just ordered some from one of Zette’s links. I’ve never tried them, but with everyone waxing so orgasmically eloquently over them, I figure I owe it to my education to check them out. Just what I need, another vice.

I understand completely, however, upon gorging myself on these like 4 times a week… gag
When I was a kid I wanted to work for them to come up with the toys that are inside… ingenius stuff going on there.
Diane, wanna know the latest? Well, it’s been a coupla years now… For Easter, Kinder produce a HUGE egg… the size of ther usual Easter egg. For Christmas, it becomes a large bauble. I have unraveled from these eggs a croquet set (the hammer is just a wonder) and the other two are too crap to mention really…
Continuing the Kinder Egg hijack.
The wonderful Canadian Pipeliner sent me a box of Canadian goodies last winter to tide me over during my period of being banned from internet access. In the box were two KinderEggs. Unfortunately, Customs smashed them to bits and left chocolate dust all over EVERYTHING, stupid fuckers. :mad: I’m going to have to go to Canada just to smuggle Kinder Eggs over the border. Oh, and Aero bars. And Smarties. WHy is Canadian chocolate so much better than what we get here?
Regarding Canadian chocolate, I buy boxes of Coffee Crisp when I head north. Mmmm. Crispy. Coffeey.
Sorry about the hijack, but for amateurs of Canadian chocolate, try to get your hands next year on one of Laura Secord’s Easter Egg, either the one with the white and yolk or the chocolate fudge and peanut one. Yummy <insert smilie licking its chops>
Have a look at an electric version 
It’s similar to a Scandinavian krumkake iron (this one is for stove top use).
[sub]Note: While I ADORE krumkake they are such a pain in the ass to make we only pull out the iron at Christmas time.[/sub]
Oh! And thanks for the recipe, Zette 
chique,
Let me know if you make 'em- stroopwafels may become the official snack of cool dopers everywhere!
Zette
I think they add heroin in there somewhere. For the ones made fresh on the street, crack rock is used. That’s how good they are. Great, now I’m jonesing hard, and it’s at least an hour and a half before I get home to my stroopwafels. Speaking of dutch treats (hah!) how about hagelslag? (That’s chocolate hail for the non-Nederlands). Or Nutella, which I guess is Swiss, but I first had it at my Om Henk’s house. I have contimplated smearing a wafel with nutella, and perhaps sprinkling hagelslag on top, but I am young, and have a long life ahead.
BidDaddy, does the term Beschuit met Muisjes ring a bell as well?
I got some when I was in Europe right before Easter. They were great but I still like the toys in the small eggs.
Nutella is pretty good too. I spread it on shortbread cookies and fed it to the kids in place of breakfast when we were in Rome. Hell, who has time to sit down and eat when traveling. They now have it at the local grocery store in my little neck of the woods.
