YUMMY CHOCOLATE WAFFLES

Coffee makes it possible to get out of bed. Chocolate makes it worthwhile. ~~ Author Unknown

We love these waffles because they are chocolate and we are chocoholics.  Serve these with ice cream on top, fruit, honey, syrup or whatever you can come up with.  They are so good. They do not get real crispy but I love the crunch of the nuts and chocolate chips.  I can eat one like a cracker for a snack!  The topping in the picture is French vanilla ice cream and caramel syrup.

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

1/3 cup cocoa

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

2 eggs

3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

2 teaspoons vanilla flavoring

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

1/2 cup chocolate chips

2/3 cup walnut pieces

Spray for waffle iron

 

Mix together flour, sugar, melted butter, cocoa, eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, salt, soda and baking power with a spoon in a large bowl. Fold in chocolate chips and nuts.   Preheat waffle iron and spray with cooking spray. Cook as usual or by directions for your waffle iron.  I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup of batter for each waffle.  Makes 10 to 12 waffles. ENJOY with toppings of your choice.

 

(Note: I freeze these and reheat by putting in toaster)
