Preheat your wafer cone or pizzelle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy. This helps incorporate air into the batter.
Add the vanilla extract and melted butter to the eggs and whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently while pouring to prevent lumps.
Add the milk slowly and mix until the batter is smooth and has a pourable consistency.
Spoon a small amount of batter (about 1 tablespoon) onto the center of the preheated wafer maker.
Close the lid and cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the wafers are golden brown and easily release from the maker.
Quickly roll the wafer around a wooden spoon handle or a dowel to form a cylindrical shape while still hot. Remember to work swiftly as the wafers harden and become brittle as they cool.
Place the rolled wafers seam-side down on a wire rack to cool completely.
Repeat this process with the remaining batter, ensuring to work quickly with each wafer set.
Once cooled, store the wafer rolls in an airtight container to retain their crispiness. Enjoy them plain or fill with your choice of cream or chocolate.
