“I could have been eating chocolate waffles this whole time instead of plain ones?!” That was my first thought. Then I wondered why I hadn’t tried chocolate waffles earlier. Brunch instantly improved the day I started making these Belgian Chocolate Waffles.

Chocolate makes everything better—especially when it’s perfectly acceptable for breakfast. These waffles are Weight Watchers friendly, too. After years of making a standard waffle batter, I realized I could transform it into a chocolate version simply by swapping some flour for cocoa powder. These Belgian Chocolate Waffles are ideal for chocolate lovers, slow weekend mornings, or special occasions like Mother’s Day.
