Time 14m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup butter (cut into pieces)
1 3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Add the butter and milk to a small bowl or measuring cup, and heat in the microwave for one minute and thirty seconds, or until the butter is melted.
  • Whisk in the vanilla and set aside. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until fluffy. Add the milk mixture and stir to combine.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, and mix until just combined (small lumps are ok). Let sit five minutes.
  • While the batter is resting, preheat your waffle iron. Stir in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, and cook according to your waffle maker's directions. (For my belgian waffle maker, 1 cup of batter cooked for 4 minutes was perfect.)

Categories     dessert

Time 5h30m

Yield about 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, roughly chopped
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
6 large egg yolks
1 3/4 cups cold heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 40-second intervals, stirring after each, until just melted. Whisk until smooth; set aside.
  • Combine the milk, sugar and egg yolks in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is thick enough to coat a spoon, about 7 minutes. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a blender. Add the melted chocolate and pulse until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the heavy cream and vanilla and pulse until just combined, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • Transfer the chilled custard to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a resealable container and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.

CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield about 6 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 large egg white, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups milk, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing the iron
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup mini-chocolate chips
Serving suggestions: Maple syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt, or ice cream for dessert

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Separate the 2 eggs and put all the whites in a large bowl.
  • In a large liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Take care not to over mix the batter.
  • Whip the egg whites with a hand-held electric mixer or whisk, until they just begin to hold a loose peak. Scatter the sugar over the whites and continue beating until they hold a soft peak. Fold a third of the egg whites into the batter to lighten the base, then fold in the remaining whites. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Brush the inside surface of the iron with butter. Pour in enough batter to barely fill each hole of the waffle iron; the amount will vary depending upon the size of the iron. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close and cook until crisp and the waffle iron stops steaming, about 5 minutes. Serve as the waffles come off the iron or transfer to a rack set on a pan in preheated 200 degree F oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • (If the waffle iron is well seasoned or nonstick it is not necessary to brush the inner surface each time before cooking the waffles.)
  • Serve the waffles with syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt. Or turn into a dessert with a scoop of ice cream.

CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES

I used my Belgian waffle machine for these, although you can use any type of waffle iron as these are not true Belgian style waffles. These were so good and did not last long at all. This recipe makes about 6 full round waffles, which can be broken into 4 smaller waffles each (I used 2 of those smaller pieces as a serving suggestion). The Zaar computer requires that I enter a cook time, but the time will vary based on each individual machine - I guess at about 7 minutes per waffle, but please test one out on your machine first for more accurate timing.

Time 17m

Yield 6 full round waffles, 12-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used Ghirardelli dark) or 1 cup dark chocolate chips (I used Ghirardelli dark)
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder (yes really this much)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 2/3 cups 2% low-fat milk
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 extra large eggs, lightly beaten (I actually prefer Jumbo)

Steps:

  • Heat a waffle iron according to your manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to grease it well; again - according to the instructions.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together with a whisk, stirring in the chocolate chips last.
  • Add in the milk, then the slightly cooled melted butter.
  • Add the eggs and stir, just enough to combine - there might be a few lumps in the batter; you just don't want any dry patches or big lumps.
  • Pour the amount of batter specified for your waffle iron onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to your instructions or until the steaming stops.
  • For softer waffles, cook less time, for crispy waffles, cook longer.
  • In general, if the steaming has dramatically slowed down and you can easily open the waffle iron to remove the waffle without it sticking, it is most likely done.
  • Serve as is or with butter or powdered sugar or syrup - whatever you prefer.

BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM



Bittersweet Chocolate Ice Cream image

From the perspective of a home cook, egg-free ice creams are simpler than custard-based ones, and more foolproof. You don't have to worry about tempering the yolks, or fear curdling. A few spoonfuls of bourbon soften the texture of the ice cream, which otherwise would freeze rock solid.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk

8 ounces dark chocolate (preferably 72 percent cacao), roughly chopped

  • When cold, pour into bowl of an ice cream machine and churn according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer to a container and freeze until solid, at least 2 hours. Let sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before serving, or in refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
