Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 and 3/4 cups milk any kind works, whole milk is richest
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or neutral oil if you prefer
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Chips
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet is classic, mini chips spread out the best

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your waffle maker until it's fully hot.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla together.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; it's okay if there are a few small lumps.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a small handful for topping the waffles.
Cooking
  1. Lightly grease your waffle maker if needed, add batter, and close the lid.
  2. Cook until deeply golden, usually until the steam slows down.
  3. If making a batch, keep finished waffles warm in a 200°F oven.

Notes

For extra crisp, place waffles on a cooling rack after cooking. Use mini chocolate chips for better distribution. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for 2 months.
