These are really good but I would agree that they are more cake-like than brownie-ish. Kind of like a flat warm cupcake! We had ours with vanilla ice cream and Sue's Homemade Hot Fudge sauce. Yum! We tried varying degrees of done-ness and the slightly gooey center was the universal favorite so keep a close eye on the waffle iron! I can't wait to bust this one out for company. (I think I'm going to try the Cinnamon Ice Cream recipe here with it too. MMMMmmm....)
I'll be honest. I'm not one to give out negative comments. If a recipe is not to my liking I'll tweak it a little bit. The batter is way too heavy even though I added a few more tablespoons of water to it. My waffle iron did not want to lie flat because the batter was so thick and when I pressed the lid down it was still so thick that it did not encompass the whole iron surface. The consistency of the batter before cooking resembles that of a brownie but that's where it ends. These waffles are like eating chocolate bricks. I didn't realize that their were other listed recipes for "chocolate waffles". I will try those. They seem to looks lighter having leavening agents/ more ingredients. Sorry they were pretty bad.
Interesting recipe. Since I read the reviews before mixing the batter.. I added a verrry ripe smallish banana to the mix.. kept them moister I think. Then near the end.. I got a little crazed and added maraschino cherry juice to the last two rounds worth of batter.. and Voila!! a Chewy Brownie!:) Thanks for posting a fun recipe. We will make this one again.
Ok..think of these as "Chocolate Waffles" not brownies and you're ok. My family ate them several different ways and we all loved them. I spinkled powdered sugar on top my husband topped his with strawberry jam and my kids ate them al la mode. Either way they were a hit. Not too sweet by themselves but in my opionion that made them better because we could all find our own individual way to eat them. Oh..as an added bonus they were extremely easy to make and even easier to clean up considering you only use one pot and your waffle iron! Definatly a make again!
wow this turned out better than i could have imagined. i even added some caramel while it was in the waffle iron and then put ice cream on top. sooo gooooood!!
I followed it to the t and loved it. Watch it to make sure it doesn't overcook... and any leftovers get hard fast (you can microwave but they're not the same). Great easy recipe!
These had a very good taste but I prefer a chewy and moist brownie. These were very cake-like and a little dry. But I liked the fact they were different and cool looking. I'll bet they would be good with ice-cream and hot fudge sauce.
They were pretty good. Definitely more cakelike than anything. Not super chocolatly either but I'm a total chocohalic and probably a chocolate bar isnt super choclaty to me XD
very easy and quick recipe and it tastes good two
