Sinfully Good: Chocolate Waffles

Years ago when my husband was in law school, a friend and I would get together once a week and try new recipes. It was so much fun..sometimes we would try some that were terrible..probably due to our own cooking abilities. But most of the time we would find really good recipes like this one that we still continue to make and end up being family favorites.

Chocolate Waffles

1 1/2 cup flour

1/3 cup cocoa

1/3 cup sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

1 tbsp baking powder

2 eggs

1 3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup oil

2 egg whites

Mix all dry ingredients together and add to wet ingredients. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold in to batter. Heat waffle maker and throughly cook waffles..best served warm.

Chocolate Sauce

(seriously sinfully good)

8 tbsp cocoa

2 cups sugar

2 cups water

6 tbsp cornstarch

8 tbsp butter

4 tsp vanilla

Microwave for 2 minute intervals and stir until sauce thickens for a total of about 8 minutes.

Waffles with a dollop of vanilla ice cream on top with chocolate sauce make for an amazing dessert! Enjoy...and thank me later! :)
HAPPY VETERAN"S DAY!
