Fudgy Brownie Waffles (Print version)
Chocolatey waffle iron brownies with crisp edges and gooey fudgy centers, ready in 25 minutes.
# What goes in:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (90 g)
02 - 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (45 g)
03 - 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 2 large eggs
07 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled (115 g)
08 - 1/4 cup whole milk (60 ml)
09 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
→ Chocolate and Add-ins
10 - 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (90 g)
# Cooking steps:
01 - Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the plates if necessary to prevent sticking.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter, whole milk, and pure vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
04 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly dispersed throughout the batter.
05 - Spoon approximately 1/2 cup of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron for each waffle, adjusting the amount based on your iron's size. Close the lid and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until the waffles are set, the edges are crisp, and the centers remain fudgy.
06 - Carefully remove each waffle from the iron using a spatula or fork. Serve warm on their own, or topped with ice cream, whipped cream, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
# Tips from flavorandfeast:
01 -
- The contrast between crunchy waffle edges and gooey brownie centers is honestly unfair to regular brownies.
- They cook in under five minutes, which means dessert is ready before your patience runs out.
02 -
- Resist the urge to peek early, because opening the iron too soon tears the waffle apart and makes a mess.
- The batter is supposed to be thick and fudgy, so if it seems stiff that is exactly right.
03 -
- Let the melted butter cool to lukewarm before mixing, or you will end up with scrambled egg brownie batter and a broken heart.
- Every waffle iron runs differently, so your first one is a test run to dial in the perfect timing.
