Chocolate Waffles

Who doesn’t like waffles – and who doesn’t like chocolate? All of it in one and the same treat. Enjoy!

In the kitchen:

• Melt the butter over a low heat. 
• Mix the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder or roughly chopped chocolate, bicarbonate of soda, vanilla sugar and brown sugar in a bowl, and beat gently with a hand mixer. 
• Stir the eggs in one at a time, then add the milk and cream, followed by the melted butter. Stir the batter until smooth.

At the barbecue:

• Prepare the barbecue for direct heat – 185-200°C. If you are using a charcoal barbecue, you need 1/3 of a chimney starter of lit briquettes. 
• Put the waffle and sandwich iron in the GBS grate and preheat for 5-8 minutes. 
• Divide the batter between the four sections, covering the entire surface. Close the iron and bake for 6-8 minutes. 
• Flip the iron through bake for roughly another 6-8 minutes, or until the waffle is crisp on both sides.
• When the waffles are ready, place them on a grate so that they stay crisp. Serve with soft scoop ice cream, for example.
