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?

Ingredients 

  • 1 box (20 ounces) brownie mix (I use Ghirardhelli Triple Chocolate for this recipe)
  • cup water
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs (the mix calls for 1 egg but for the waffles, I add an extra egg)
  • desired toppings

Instructions 

  • Whisk together eggs, water, and oil until combined. Add brownie mix and mix until just combined.
    ⅓ cup water, ⅓ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 box (20 ounces) brownie mix
  • Pour into preheated waffle maker and bake for 3 minutes, or as directed on your waffle maker. Try not to undercook the waffles. Do not open until the waffle maker stops steaming.
  • Remove and enjoy topped with fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream. Hot fudge would be good too! And sprinkles are always a good decision.

Notes

  • Yield: Makes about 3 large Belgian waffles, serves 6 (½ large waffle each).
