Dutch term or phrase: zonnebloemolie.. schenkstroop..... vanillesuiker
My son is making Poffertjes for school and the recipe is from a dutch baker I knew while living in Geleen in 1990-1993. The recipe is written in dutch and I cannot find the paper that translated it. Any help would make this alot easier. Thank You...Dank u wel

Explanation:
that's it. Schenkstroop is a sugar syrup in a bottle from which you can pour the syrup. It doesn't tell you anything about the ingredients.

Eet smakelijk.
