Scooby Snack Bowl
Last Christmas, my mother-in-law gifted me a waffle bowl maker. Let me tell you, I didn’t think I would get as much use out of it as I have. I’ve used it for traditional waffle bowls, cornbread waffle bowls for chili, savory waffle bowls for soup…the possibilities seem endless.
When Matthew came to me and said he wanted to have a family movie night and watch Scoob!, I knew we could do something fun for dessert. I’ve seen these Scooby Graham Cracker Snacks around the stores before and he suggested we do some sort of sundae with them.
Matthew found some at Target and when I realized they have a cinnamon flavor, I knew a sort of dulce de leche flavor combination would be perfect. So the Scooby Snack Bowl was born. Now, you can purchase waffle bowls and recreate this without having to add to your small appliance collection.
Or if you are intrigued and may want to purchase your own waffle bowl maker, there are many options.
Or another way to recreate waffle bowls is to use a traditional waffle machine (not a Belgium waffle machine). When I worked at Baskin-Robbins in high school, our waffle cone/bowl machine was flat like a regular waffle machine.
To achieve the bowl look, when you take out the waffle you immediately place it in a cereal bowl and then gently push a cup down to form the bowl. Leave the cup in place until the waffle cools off. You may have to play around with your waffle machine and the size of bowl and cup you use, but it does work.
