Death by Chocolate Waffles
Source of Recipe
From "Maple Syrup Cookbook" by Ken Haedrich
Recipe Introduction
"Try these crisp, double-chocolate waffles with a small mountain of vanilla ice cream and a pool of maple syrup. Maybe they're not life threatening, but they're surely diet threatening! They're the ultimate in chocolate decadence."
List of Ingredients
◦ Butter for greasing waffle iron
◦ 1 ⅓ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
◦ ⅓ cup whole-wheat flour
◦ � cup unsweetened cocoa powder
◦ 1 tablespoon baking powder
◦ 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
◦ � teaspoon salt
◦ � cup (1 stick) butter
◦ 3 ounces semisweet chocolate
◦ 2 tablespoons sugar
◦ 2 � cups milk
◦ 2 eggs, beaten until frothy
◦ Warm pure maple syrup for drizzling on top
Recipe
Preheat a waffle iron and butter it lightly. Combine the flours, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Toss to mix. Set aside.
Combine the butter, chocolate, and sugar in a medium saucepan and melt over very low heat. Whisk to smooth, remove from the heat, then whisk in the milk and eggs.
Make a well in the dry ingredients, pour in the chocolate mixture, and blend, just until everything is combined; watch for dry clumps. Let the batter stand for several minutes; it will thicken slightly.
Cook the batter in the prepared waffle iron until crisp and golden, about 2 minutes. Keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with warm maple syrup.
