These waffles are pretty minimal, but they pack a serious punch of heartiness and rich fluffiness. To make them, you’ll need to have on hand all-purpose flour, dutch-process cocoa, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, eggs, oil, and milk.

This recipe is no different and surprisingly has a perfect balance in the mixture of chocolate and sugar. Make a batch and give it a try, you will soon understand what I’m talking about.

Instructions for Chocolate Waffles 

  1. Preheat the waffle iron.
  2. In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. Flour, Sugar, Cocoa, Baking Powder, and Salt and stir to combine.
  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; add milk, eggs, and butter. With a fork or large spoon mix batter to combine ingredients.
  4. Spray Waffle Iron with Cooking Spray and pour batter into the mold.
  5. Cook waffles according to manufacturers’ instructions.
  6. Generally, the light comes on when started and when the light goes off, the waffle is ready to take out
  7. Make the hard sauce: stir together softened butter, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. The sauce should be fairly stiff. Set aside.
  8. Serve hot with hard sauce.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with the custard sauce, whipped cream, some strawberries and a dusting of confectioners’ sugar. Garnish with icing sugar and chocolate syrup on top. Serve immediately.

Serve hot with fresh fruits, berries, sweet cream, and even a chocolate drizzle. My favorite is with Fruit Syrup, Sweetened Whipping Cream, and Fresh Fruit. I’m in heaven. What’s your favorite toppings?

Tips and Variations

  • These waffles are not a sweet dessert waffle, so the syrup and berries really make them great.
  • I would consider these a bit of a dark chocolate waffle. If you want less of a chocolate flavor, feel free to use ¼ cup of cocoa powder and increase the all-purpose flour to 1 ½ cups.
  • Waffle recipes are generally not sweet. What makes them sweet are the toppings put on top.

Topping Ideas

For breakfast – Top it with Sweet Cream, Chocolate Sauce, Berries – Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry, or Blackberry, Caramel Sauce, Fruit Syrups, Maple Syrup, and Buttermilk Syrup.

For dessert – Peanut Butter and Reeses Peanut Butter cups, Nutella and Strawberries, Cinnamon and Sugar with Icing, Ice Cream and Chocolate Syrup.

Storage and Heating

Freeze leftover waffles for up to 3 months when sealed in a container or zip-loc bag. Place parchment paper between waffles to prevent sticking

Re-Heat waffles in Toaster for nice hot and crispy Waffles or in the Microwave for 30-90 seconds depending on Microwave power.
