Instructions

PREHEAT:

  • Preheat your waffle maker as per the manufacturer’s instructions.

MAKE WAFFLE BATTER:

  • Place the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and mix until combined.
  • In a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, whisk the sugar and the egg yolks until combined.
  • Add the milk, butter, and vanilla until thoroughly blended.
  • Mix the flour mixture with the egg yolk mixture until thoroughly combined.
  • Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
  • Clean the stand mixer bowl so you can use it for the egg whites.
  • Add egg whites to the now clean bowl and beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. This will take approximately 1-2 minutes.
  • Fold the egg whites into the batter.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips. Be careful not to overmix.

COOK WAFFLES:

  • Once you are ready, add non-stick spray to both sides of your waffle maker.
  • Add 1 cup of the batter to the waffle maker.
  • Close your waffle maker and cook the waffles per the manufacturer’s instructions. Usually, this will take 2 - 3 minutes per waffle.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Serve immediately and garnish with chocolate syrup, fruit, powdered sugar, or whipped cream, all optional.
