Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ¼ cups milk
• 2 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• ½ cup chocolate sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• Chocolate curls (for garnish, optional)

How to Make Chocolate Chip Waffles

1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. Fold in the chocolate chips.
5. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a little melted butter.
6. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (about ½ cup, depending on the size of your iron) and close the lid. Cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown.
7. Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm in a low oven while you cook the remaining batter.
8. To serve, drizzle the warm chocolate sauce over the waffles and top with chocolate curls, if desired.

Make sure your baking powder is fresh for the best rise. Don’t overmix the batter; it should be slightly lumpy for the fluffiest waffles. Adjust the cooking time based on your waffle iron, as some may cook faster than others.

• Fruit Fusion: Toss in some fresh blueberries or sliced bananas with the chocolate chips.
• Spiced Up: Add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a warm flavor.
• Milk Chocolate: Substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with milk chocolate for a sweeter taste.

What to Serve With It

These chocolate chip waffles pair beautifully with:

• Fresh berries for a burst of tartness.
• Whipped cream for added creaminess.
• Maple syrup for a classic touch.
