Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Whole Milk 500 ml
All-Purpose Flour 220 g
Sweetened Condensed Milk 100 g
Butter 30 g
Unsweetened Cocoa Powder 30 g
Eggs 1
Baking Powder 8 g

Instructions

To prepare the Chocolate and Passion Fruit Waffles:

  1. Begin by sifting the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder into a large mixing bowl. This will ensure your dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps.

  2. Gradually pour in the whole milk while whisking the mixture to form a smooth batter.

  3. Separate the egg yolk from the egg white. Add the yolk to the batter and set the egg white aside for later use. Mix the yolk into the batter thoroughly.

  4. Incorporate the sweetened condensed milk into the batter, stirring until well combined.

  5. In a separate bowl, melt the butter. Allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the batter mixture, ensuring it blends smoothly.

  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter rest for a while to ensure the ingredients meld together perfectly.

  7. After the resting period, take the egg white you set aside earlier and beat it until it forms stiff peaks.

  8. Gently fold the whipped egg white into the rested batter. Be careful not to deflate the mixture too much, as this helps create light, fluffy waffles.

For the waffles:

  1. Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

  2. Lightly grease the waffle plates if necessary. Using a ladle, pour enough batter into the waffle maker to cover the plates, ensuring the batter is evenly distributed.

  3. Close the waffle maker and cook the waffles for about 5 minutes, or follow the recommended time for your waffle maker. The waffles should be crisp on the outside and soft inside.

  4. Once cooked, carefully remove the waffles and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack.

For the Passion Fruit Sauce:

  1. Cut the passion fruits in half and scoop out the pulp into a small bowl.

  2. Use a fine mesh sieve to strain the pulp, removing the seeds, and collect the juice in a bowl.

  3. Add the sweetened condensed milk to the strained passion fruit juice and stir well to combine.

To Serve:

  1. Arrange the warm chocolate waffles on a serving plate and generously drizzle them with the passion fruit sauce.

  2. Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of rich chocolate flavor and the tropical tang of passion fruit.

Tips

  • If you want to enhance the richness of the sauce, you can add a touch of vanilla extract or a splash of cream for extra creaminess.
  • For a fun variation, try adding a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chocolate shavings on top of the waffles before serving.

These Chocolate and Passion Fruit Waffles are an indulgent yet refreshing treat perfect for any occasion, from a cozy breakfast to an elegant dessert.
