Fudgy Brownie Waffles (Print Version)
Crispy, fudgy chocolate waffles perfect for a decadent brunch or indulgent dessert in just 30 minutes.
# What You Need:
→ Wet Ingredients
01 - 7 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
02 - ½ cup whole milk
03 - 2 large eggs
04 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
→ Dry Ingredients
05 - ¾ cup granulated sugar
06 - ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
07 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
08 - ½ tsp baking powder
09 - ¼ tsp salt
→ Add-ins
10 - ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
# How To Make:
01 - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
03 - In a separate bowl, sift together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly blended.
04 - Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the texture tender.
05 - Gently fold the semisweet chocolate chips into the batter using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout.
06 - Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron. Pour approximately ½ cup of batter into the center of each waffle plate, close the lid, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the exterior is crisp and the center remains fudgy.
07 - Carefully remove each cooked waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter, re-greasing the iron as needed.
08 - Serve the waffles warm as-is, or top with whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent touch.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The contrast between the crunchy waffle exterior and the gooey brownie center will ruin regular brownies for you forever.
- Six waffles go from bowl to plate in under thirty minutes with zero oven preheating required.
- Every single pocket holds a little pool of melted chocolate, which is honestly the dream.
02 -
- Resist the urge to open the waffle iron early because these need the full cooking time to develop that crisp shell while staying fudgy inside.
- The batter will be thicker than regular waffle batter and that is exactly right, so do not add extra milk.
03 -
- Let the melted butter cool slightly before adding it to the eggs so you do not accidentally scramble them into the batter.
- Coating the chocolate chips in a pinch of flour before folding them in prevents them from all sinking to the bottom of each waffle.
