Chocolate Waffles
This chocolate waffles recipe is the ultimate treat-yourself breakfast or dessert - crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and packed with rich cocoa flavour.
Ingredients
Method
Place the flour, caster sugar, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt in a large mixing bowl and mix.
In a separate bowl beat together the eggs and milk.
Add the egg and milk mixture, as well as the vegetable oil and vanilla essence to all of the dry ingredients and mix together well until all lumps have disappeared.
Pre-heat your Waffle Maker and add some sunflower oil spray, to the baking plates to eliminate the possibility of sticking (a thin layer of butter/margarine can also be used).
Use one ladle of your waffle mixture and gently pour to the centre of the bottom plate. The mixture will spread to the edges itself, do not use more than one ladle of mixture as the waffle will expand with cooking.
Close the lid.
Leave for 7-8 minutes and check for browning around the sides of the waffle. It may need to be left for a further 1-2 minutes. Once you are happy you can switch off the machine and leave to cool for a few minutes before removing with a wooden or plastic utensil.
Decorate your waffle as desired.

Fire up the waffle iron for this awesome choco waffle recipe!
Look no further for choc-filled breakfast bliss! Our chocolate waffles recipe is part brunch, part dessert, and entirely irresistible. A simple batter made from plain flour, cocoa powder, caster sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and a splash of vanilla essence comes together in minutes, ready to transform into crispy fluffy chocolatey goodness.
Once whisked smooth, the batter for this chocolate chip waffle recipe is poured onto a preheated waffle iron, until crisp on the outside and cakey in the middle. Serve hot from the iron and add your preferred toppings. Go classic with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, maple syrup, chocolate or caramel sauce, and whipped cream, or keep it simple with fresh berries and a dusting of icing sugar. Sliced bananas, chopped nuts, and even a spoonful of hazelnut spread or apple compote are all great alternatives.
Add your own spin to this choco waffle recipe by turning it into a chocolate chip waffle recipe by throwing in a handful of chocolate chips to the batter, adding a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder, or swapping a portion of the milk for buttermilk.
