Place a level teaspoon of batter into the center of the hot, greased iron.

Close the lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the cookie is golden brown and crisp.

Immediately remove the cookie and roll it tightly around the handle of a wooden spoon or a cone mold while still hot and pliable.

Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the iron lightly between each cookie.
