Peanut Butter Sugared Hong Kong Waffles

Mrs.R's Note:

I had these pretty much everyday in Hong Kong. And not just once a day, but whenever I could! These are very common street snacks, and once you try them, I'm sure they will become part of your routine also! Hong Kong waffles are larger than standard American waffles, but I've found that it doesn't matter much - it still tastes just as good. There is nothing healthy in these, that's the intention, but they are sweet and delicious! If there is a certain waffle recipe you adore, feel free to use that in place of the standard one I have provided. I've provided my simple, painless waffle recipe. "Easy, Basic Waffles"

Absolutely out of this world! I can't even describe how good these taste!

I am originally from HK. I have not tried to make this yet but it looks good. I just want to tell you that this recipe is not "Gei Dan Jai". Gei Dan Jai is actually the yellow little egg looking thing that people cook in a "tennie racket" hot plate. You probably know what I am talking about since you have eaten a lot of street food in HK before. That yellow round sweet tasting dessert is called "GI DAN JAI" it means little egg. I think this recipe is called "Gap Bang" means "pressed waffle". Hope that will help clarifying things up. Thanks for the great recipe!
