Chocolate Brownie Waffles

Chocolate Brownie Waffles 2 cups all-purpose flour 3/4-1 cup Sugar 2/3 cup unsweetened and sifted Cocoa powder 1 Tablespoon Baking powder 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda 1/2 teaspoon Salt 1/2 teaspoon ground Cinnamon 2 cups Milk 2 large Eggs, lightly beaten 1 teaspoon pure Vanilla Extract 1/4 cup (1/2 stick – 2 oz) unsalted Butter, melted and cooled slightly 1 cup Mini Chocolate chips 1/2-2/3 cup Pecans or Walnuts, finely chopped (optional) Chocolate Sauce (store bought or homemade), for drizzling Whipped Cream Fruits (like berries) Combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Blend by using a whisk. Pour in the milk, lightly beaten eggs, Vanilla extract and melted butter. Stir until smooth and well-blended. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and the nuts. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. Preheat your waffle maker according to manufacturer’s instructions. Pour just enough batter to fill up your waffle maker without overflowing and leaving enough room for batter to expand. Since waffle makers vary in sizes please refer to your manufacturers suggested amount for guidancce. Cook to your desired setting, about 4-5 minutes or until fully cooked through. Once the waffles are cooked, open the lid and let them cool slightly before removing as they may be slightly fragile. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve immediately with some whipped cream, chocolate sauce for drizzling and definitely some fruits on the side. And if you fancy it as a dessert, why not top it with some ice cream and serve it a la mode
