Perfect for breakfast or brunch these decadent chocolate waffles are fluffy, light and taste like your favorite brownie! Discover the best recipe to make chocolate waffles at home.
Preheat your waffle iron per manufacturer's instructions.
You will need 3 bowls, 1 large and 2 medium. In the largest bowl combine flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and whisk to combine.
