Super Easy Brownie Waffles
I almost feel bad posting this recipe because it’s barely a recipe, but it’s a brownie waffle! If you haven’t tried this, you must. No shame in my game, I use a brownie mix from a box, and I’d say that Ghirardelli brownies are the best around. Every time I make them for anything, I get a compliment on my delicious brownies.
Making brownie waffles is as easy as whipping up the brownie mix (add in an extra egg!) and throw the batter in the waffle maker! In three minutes, you’re dining on the perfect brownie waffle: soft on the inside and crispy on the outside.
The hardest part is trying to decide how to top it! Whipped cream, sprinkles, strawberries, hot fudge, caramel sauce, ice cream, or all of the above?

Was hoping for a brownie like texture. These are cake like. If I leave out the extra egg, will they still work?
I’m not sure if they’d hold together as well – they might get more stuck in your waffle maker. Let me know if you give it a try, though.
I, too, love Ghiradelli Triple Chunk Brownies. But when I made these in my Belgian waffle maker, they were too soft to get out in one piece. When I put them on the darkest setting, hoping to make them more crisp so that they would easily lift out, they burned – and were still too soft to come out in one piece! As a reference for comparison, my Cuisinart waffle maker has settings of 1 (lightest) to 5 (darkest), and we usually have waffles at about 2.5, nicely crisp & golden.
So sorry it didn’t work out well for you! It is a tricky recipe as the brownies tend to be a lot more fragile than traditional waffles.
