Ingredients

(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)

All-purpose flour gives the waffles structure while keeping them light.

Baking powder ensures the waffles rise with fluffy centers.

Salt balances the sweetness and enhances flavor.

Granulated sugar sweetens the batter just enough to complement the chocolate spread.

Eggs add structure and richness while helping create a golden crust.

Milk provides moisture, keeping the waffles tender.

Unsalted butter (melted) adds flavor and helps achieve crisp edges.

Vanilla extract enhances the batter with warm undertones.

Lindt squeezable hazelnut chocolate spread is the star topping, delivering creamy, nutty sweetness in every bite.

Fresh berries or whipped cream (optional) add freshness and contrast to the richness.

Directions

Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, beat eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla until combined. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until smooth but not overmixed.

Pour batter into the preheated waffle iron, spreading evenly. Cook according to your machine’s instructions, usually 3–5 minutes, until golden and crisp. Remove carefully and keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter.

Once waffles are ready, drizzle generously with Lindt’s squeezable hazelnut chocolate spread. Add fresh berries, whipped cream, or powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect harmony of fluffy waffles and velvety chocolate.
