Red Velvet Waffles with White Chocolate Cream Cheese Sauce

Category: Breakfast and Brunch

4 Tbs butter, melted
3 Tbs sugar
2 1/2 Tbs cocoa powder
2 eggs
2 Tbs red food colour
2 C flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2- 3/4 C milk

For the sauce:

2 Tbs butter
4 oz light cream cheese
1/3 C white chocolate wafers
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 colour; mix until well combined. In a small bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet; also adding 1/2 C of milk. Stir to form a somewhat thick smooth batter, adding more milk if too thick (should be slightly thicker than pancake batter).

Spray preheated waffle plates with non stick spray. Pour batter onto hot plates, 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 cream cheese and milk. Whisk until cream cheese is melted and mixture is smooth. Add in the vanilla and white chocolate; stirring until it is melted and incorporated. Pour sauce over hot waffles and serve.
