Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
Add-ins
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions for the best results.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Sugars and Butter: In another medium bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time to the sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add Buttermilk: Gradually add the buttermilk to the sugar and egg mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, folding slowly until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Grease Waffle Iron: Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron to ensure the batter doesn’t stick.
- Cook Waffles: Pour about 1/2 cup of the batter onto the center of the hot waffle iron. Adjust the amount of batter according to the size of your waffle iron.
- Close Lid and Cook: Close the lid and cook until the waffles are crisp and cooked through, usually about 4-5 minutes, but this may vary depending on your waffle iron.
- Repeat Cooking: Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve hot with your choice of toppings such as whipped cream, fresh berries, or additional chocolate sauce.
Notes
- Do not over-mix the batter to keep the waffles tender and fudgy.
- Adjust batter quantity based on your waffle iron size to avoid overflow.
- Use fresh buttermilk for best texture and flavor; alternatively, milk mixed with lemon juice can be used as a substitute.
- For an extra crunch, sprinkle some chocolate chips on top of the batter in the waffle iron before cooking.
- Waffles are best served immediately but can be kept warm in a low oven.
