In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat until fully combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be thick.
Gently fold in the milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease it with cooking spray or melted butter.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll it into a ball, and place it onto the center of each waffle section. Close the lid gentlyβdonβt press too hard to avoid over-flattening the cookies.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies have a waffle-like texture. Exact timing may vary based on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffle cookies using a fork or silicone spatula and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Repeat with the remaining dough until all cookies are cooked.
Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or enjoy them as is!
