A Birthday Breakfast treat!!!

In our house homemade waffles have turned into a breakfast treat on weekends. Since getting a waffle machine at Christmas time we have homemade waffles every weekend. We have made banana walnut waffles, belgian waffles and plain waffles with different sauces and fruit on them. My next experiment will be with chocolate waffles. But for a special birthday we have made these wonderful banana split waffles, including the whip cream on top. The chocolate sauce is good hot or cold on ice cream too or even added to milk to make homemade chocolate milk.

Banana Split Waffles

Homemade Waffles-Part 1

    3 cups flour
    6 Tbsp sugar
    4 ½ tsp baking powder 
    3 eggs (whisked)
    1 1/2 cups milk
    1 1/2 cups water
    6 Tbsp oil

You will need two bowls for this recipe.

1st bowl                                             2nd bowl
Flour, sugar, baking powder.               Eggs, milk, water and oil.

Add the 2nd bowl mixture to the 1st bowl and mix well. Pour as directed onto your waffle machine.

Chocolate Sauce-Part 2

    1 1/4 cups each water and white sugar
    3/4 cup baking cocoa

Whish together in a pot on medium heat, bring to a boil and turn down and simmer a couple minutes. Continue to whisk as to not scortch or burn to bottom of pot. Cool down and use as you wish. Will not be too thick or too thin.
