Best 4 Chocolate Waffles With Creme Anglaise Recipes

CHOCOLATE WAFFLES I

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron. In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cocoa. Stir in milk, eggs and butter until mixture is smooth.
• To make hard sauce: stir together softened butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Sauce should be fairly stiff.
• Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown. Serve hot with hard sauce.

CHOCOLATE WAFFLES WITH CREME ANGLAISE

Steps:

• For the creme anglaise: Bring the milk, cream, vanilla and salt to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a medium heatproof bowl until well combined.
• When the milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour about a quarter of it into the yolk mixture while whisking constantly to combine. Place the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture over low heat. While whisking constantly, add the yolk mixture to the saucepan. Whisk until the mixture begins to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Switch to a silicone spatula and continue to cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick enough to heavily coat the spatula, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover the saucepan and set aside.
• For the waffles: Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl to combine. Whisk the buttermilk, oil and melted butter in a medium bowl until well combined.
• Whip the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a medium bowl with a handheld mixer) to medium peaks.
• Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and whisk well to combine. Add about a quarter of the whipped egg whites and whisk more vigorously to combine. Add the remaining egg whites in 2 to 3 additions, folding gently after each addition until just incorporated. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips.
• Preheat a Belgian-style waffle iron to medium and grease as needed with nonstick spray. Scoop the waffle batter into the heated waffle iron, close and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until the waffle is crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Reheat the creme anglaise over low heat. Stir gently until fluid and warm, then gently strain into a serving bowl.
• To serve, cut the waffles into quarters and serve alongside the creme anglaise for dipping. Or plate the waffles and allow guests to drizzle the sauce over their own waffles. Serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE WAFFLES II

Steps:

• In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate until melted. Stir occasionally until chocolate is smooth. Set aside.
• In a bowl, mix the butter and sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Stir in chocolate and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; add gradually to the butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the milk.
• Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until crisp.

DARK CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES WITH CARDAMOM CRèME ANGLAISE

Steps:

• Place chocolate and butter in medium bowl. Whisk 1/4 cup sugar, flour, and cocoa powder in small bowl. Bring milk and vanilla to boil in heavy small saucepan. Gradually whisk hot milk mixture into sugar mixture to blend. Return mixture to same saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until thick paste forms, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Scrape mixture into bowl with chocolate and butter; stir until chocolate is melted (mixture may look curdled). Add egg yolks and whisk until mixture looks shiny and creamy. (Soufflé base can be prepared 1 day ahead. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface and refrigerate. Bring soufflé base to room temperature before continuing.)
• Butter eight 3/4-cup soufflé dishes or custard cups; dust with sugar. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites until frothy. With mixer running, gradually add 3 tablespoons sugar, then salt; beat just until soft peaks form. Fold 1/3 of whites into soufflé base until well combined. Gently fold in remaining egg whites just to blend (some white streaks may remain). Divide batter among prepared dishes. Place dishes on rimmed baking sheet. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake soufflés until puffed above rim of dish, tops are flat, and edges are set, about 12 minutes. Serve immediately with Cardamom Crème Anglaise.
