CHOCOLATE CHIP BROWNIE WAFFLES.

MAKES 14 TO 16 WAFFLES.

TIME: 30 MINUTES.

Are they brownies or are they waffles? Okay, anyone over the age of three won't mistake them for the former, yet these fluffy waffles with crunchy pecans baked into them could just be the perfect way to get more chocolate into your mornings. Sweet but not overly so, these are suitable for breakfast or brunch when served with maple syrup, fresh berries, and sliced bananas. Even better, throw a waffle party and serve these up like an ice-cream sundae-top with your favorite vegan ice cream, chocolate syrup, crushed pineapple, walnuts, sliced bananas, sprinkles, and more.
