Red Velvet Waffles

Here is a great idea for Sunday brunch or Christmas day brunch.

Red Velvet Waffles with White Chocolate Sauce

Waffle

4 tbs. butter

3 tbs. sugar

2 1/2 tbs. cocoa powder

2 eggs

2 tbs. red food color

2 cup flour

3 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. Kosher salt

1/2 cup milk

Sauce

2 tbs. butter

4 oz. whipped cream cheese

1/3 cup white chocolate chips

3 tbs. milk

1/2 tsp. clear vanilla extract

Preheat your waffle iron.

In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter with the sugar and cocoa. Add in eggs and red food color; mix until well combined. I know that is a lot of food coloring, but if you want the deep red use it all.  

In a small bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet; also adding 1/2 cup of milk. Stir to form a somewhat thick smooth batter, adding more milk if too thick (It should be slightly thicker than pancake batter).

Spray preheated waffle plates with non stick spray. Pour batter, making sure to spread and completely cover them. Close lid and cook for 5 minutes.

While waffles are cooking, melt butter in a small skillet. Add the softened whipped cream cheese and milk. Whisk until the cream cheese is melted and mixture is smooth. Add in the vanilla and white chocolate; stirring until it is melted and incorporated. Pour warm sauce over hot waffles and serve.

Oh your family will love you for this one.

Have a great Sunday, be happy and may God bless you and yours.
