Notes
1. Ingredient Substitutions - You can substitute part or all of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for added fiber and nutrients. If you prefer a sweeter waffle, you can increase the amount of granulated sugar or use powdered sugar instead.
2. Flavor Variations - Enhance the chocolate flavor by adding chocolate chips or chunks to the batter. For a hint of warmth, add a pinch of ground cinnamon or a dash of espresso powder to the batter.
