Preparation Instructions
For the waffles:
Start heating up your waffle iron to medium-high heat. In a medium-sized
bowl, mix together the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, sugar,
salt, baking powder) and whisk them to combine. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, butter, vanilla, and
food coloring until combined. Whisk in the dry ingredients to the wet
ones until combined (the batter will have little lumps in it, you want
that!).
Pour 1/2 cup batter in the center of the iron and close. Cook until
the waffles are crispy and cooked through. Carefully remove the waffle,
drizzle with maple cream cheese (recipe below) and chocolate chips.
For the maple cream cheese syrup:
Beat all the ingredients together until it forms a drizzling
consistency. Drizzle over waffles and top them with chocolate chips.
