These irresistible Double Chocolate Waffles are decadent delights with a crispy exterior and a tender, chocolate-loaded interior. Who could possibly say no?

This waffle recipe includes both cocoa powder and chocolate chips for a rich and intense chocolate flavor. Served with some more chocolate sauce on top could easily be considered Triple Chocolate Waffles. So good, so rich, so chocolaty, such a good texture balance….simply divine.

Waffles in general can be made for breakfast but these can make an amazing dessert as well. They are very easy to prepare and can be served right away which makes them a good choice for whenever you have unexpected guests or to simply satisfy your chocolate craving immediately 🙂

How to Make Double Chocolate Waffles

To start, prepare the chocolate sauce. In a medium saucepan, whisk together cocoa powder with sugar and salt. Add water and mix to combine. Place over medium-low heat and bring to a boil. Simmer for 1 minute, stirring continuously. Remove from heat, add vanilla, and set aside to cool until ready to use.

Next, prepare the chocolate waffles. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Separate the eggs. Mix the egg yolks with sugar until smooth and creamy. Add oil, one cup of buttermilk, and vanilla, and whisk to combine. Add the flour mixture and mix until well combined. Then, add the other cup of buttermilk and whisk to combine.

Whip the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the two tablespoons of sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold them into the batter, then incorporate chocolate chips.

Preheat your waffle iron and spray both surfaces with cooking spray or grease with oil. Pour about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of batter onto one side of the iron and close it. Cook according to your waffle maker instructions.

To keep them crisp until you prepare the others, place the cooked ones in the preheated oven at 200°F (100°C) on a cooling rack.

It’s best to serve them immediately, while still hot, with whipped cream or ice cream if desired, and with some fresh berries and chocolate sauce for a more decadent treat.
