Chocolate Brownie Waffles

Chocolate Brownie Waffles

Quite frankly, I could eat waffles for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Especially when the word “brownie” is involved.

What could be better than eating waffles for breakfast? How about waffles that taste like brownies? #recipe #waffles #brownies

When I got the opportunity for an advance copy of Breakfast for Dinner by Lindsay Landis and Taylor Hackbarth, I was all over it.  You know Lindsay, right?  From the supercrazyawesome blog Love and Olive Oil?  Oh, and she wrote one of my other all-time favorite cookbooks, The Cookie Dough Lover’s Cookbook.  So what if that cookbook single-handedly caused me to gain 10 pounds?

Totally worth it.

Breakfast for Dinner is all about–you guessed it–breakfast foods designed for dinner.  This beautiful, hardcover book is broken into three main sections: Main Dishes, Sides and Starters, and Drinks and Desserts.

Hmmm…I guess it’s obvious where I started.

Lindsay suggests serving a blackberry syrup with these, which I think would be absolutely fabu, but Doodle refuses to eat blackberries because they have “hair” on them.  Oh, the joys of living with a 5-year old.

Quite honestly, I think most any fruit syrup would pair nicely with these, but obviously we went the strawberry route.  Perfect for Valentine’s Day, by the way!

The Tall Boy and I are planning on working our way through this cookbook, one recipe at a time: Italian-Style Stuffed French Toast, Breakfast Sausage Ravioli, Scrambled Egg and Salmon Quesadillas, Maple Bacon Cupcakes, and Doughnut Fudge Sundaes…

Is that too much for a Sunday brunch?

🙂

While I do love a good, protein-filled breakfast (or dinner), I have to admit, waffles are my very favorite breakfast food of all time. And waffles that taste like chocolate brownies.

Yes please, I’ll take two.

Chocolate Brownie Waffles

Ingredients
For Strawberry Sauce:
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • juice from one lemon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Waffles:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 3 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk (I used 2%)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Method
For the strawberry sauce:
  1. Stir together berries, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring and crushing berries with the back of a wooden spoon. Simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, or until sugar has dissolved and berries begin to break down. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Transfer to a blender and pulse until smooth.
For the waffles:
  1. In a saucepan or in a double boiler, stir butter and chocolate until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in sugar. Whisk in eggs and vanilla, followed by milk. Add in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until just combined.
  2. Preheat your waffle iron. Drop batter onto iron and cook until the outside is crispy. Serve warm with fruit sauce. Top with additional berries and whipped cream, if desired.

    I always tell Kevin… I never mind waking up to chocolate in the morning. He’s usually in charge of pancakes or waffles if we make them. 🙂 Now I need to tell him THESE are in high order next time. I love the “pour” shot Ashley! Strawberries and chocolate are a match made in heaven. 😉

      I always make my husband help with the pour shots…he is usually in a hurry to eat and not so into the photography, haha. These waffles made a fun special breakfast–can’t go wrong with chocolate!

    OH MY WORD I DIE. Everything about this is screaming my name and oddly, wants me to eat a stack of chocolate brownie waffles with strawberry syrup at 9pm. Weird!

    ANYWHOOOOO, I am totally beating myself up for not buying a waffle machine when I had the chance and it was on sale! Because right now, I have a serious hankering for waffles (waffles > pancakes) and want these NOW!

    The wife went to her mother’s for a few days and, fortuitously, I found this recipe. I made these for my son this morning before school. They were a hit, Billboard Top 100. I’ve raised tha bar, honey. You’d better up your game.
