This sounds really good and easy, but question, do you put the lid down as making the waffles? Or just cook open?

Do you close the waffle maker or leave it open when you bake these cookies??

Ok. What did I do wrong? The batter wasn't batter like. It was more like little clumps. These didn't turn out at all. Any ideas?
