Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- optional whipped cream or fresh berries for topping
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with a small amount of vegetable oil or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, and stir until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Spoon approximately 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron. Spread the batter slightly with a spatula to cover the surface of the iron evenly.
Close the lid of the waffle iron and cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, usually about 4 to 5 minutes, until the waffles are cooked through and crisp on the outside.
Carefully remove the cooked waffle and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles immediately. Top with optional whipped cream, fresh berries, or your favorite syrup if desired.
