Special Precautions and Tips:
- Do not overmix the batter, as this will make the wafers tough.
- If you don't have a round object to roll the wafers around, you can use a fork or your fingers to gently shape them into tubes.
- Let the wafers cool completely before filling or dipping them in chocolate, as they will become soft if they are still warm.
