Breakfast and brunch are coveted times in our home. We are all big fans of the meal and are constantly searching for new recipes to add to our rotation! 

One morning, while battling an epic sweet tooth, we decided to whip up a chocolate waffle. 

All I have to say is HOLY SMOKES these dark chocolate waffles are tasty. Crisp on the outside, soft and chewy in the center… It is the things dreams are made of. 

Recipe Features:

What You Need:

I suggest using quality ingredients for this recipe. The rich flavor comes from the cocoa and is enhanced with the remaining ingredients. So if you have to pick only one to splurge on, make it the cocoa powder!

• All-purpose flour
• Baking powder and baking soda
• Granulated sugar
• Cocoa powder
• Vanilla extract
• Milk
• Eggs
• Butter

Want to make these into double chocolate waffles? Stir in one cup of mini chocolate chips into the batter before cooking!

Step by Step Instructions:

1. reheat your waffle iron. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and cocoa. Set aside.
2. In a large measuring cup combine the vanilla, milk, egg yolks, and butter. Stir into the dry ingredients until fully incorporated.
3. Whip the egg whites until peaks form. Fold into your batter. Pour the mix into your waffle iron and cook until golden brown.
