Ingredients
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour (210g)
- ½ cup cocoa powder (50g)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (100g)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1¾ cups milk (420ml)
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly (113g)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until combined.
- Preheat the waffle iron. Brush the iron with more melted butter or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add ¼ to ⅓ cup of batter to each cavity of the hot waffle iron. (The amount will depend on the size and shape of your waffle maker- you may need to adjust the amount per cavity.)
- Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until steaming and darker brown in color. Place on a wire rack until ready to serve. Serve hot with berries, maple syrup, and butter or your favorite toppings.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients if possible. If you have time, set the eggs and milk out about 30 minutes to 1 hour before you start on the homemade waffles. They will still be delicious if you don’t have the time!
- Weigh the flour. A kitchen scale is the most accurate way to measure flour. If you don’t have one, fluff the flour in its container, spoon it into your measuring cup, and use a knife to level off the top.
- Don’t over-mix the batter. A few lumps are okay and will actually encourage a fluffier waffle. Mixing it too much will deflate the batter and cause more gluten to develop, creating dense and chewy waffles.
- The number of waffles will depend on the size of your waffle maker. My waffle maker yields 10 chocolate waffles with this recipe, but yours may yield fewer or more depending on the size of your waffle maker.
- For the ultimate chocolaty breakfast, fold ½ cup of mini chocolate chips into the batter.
