CHOCOLATE BELGIAN WAFFLES

    Serves 2

240ml milk
60g unsalted butter, melted
½tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
130g self-raising flour
20g cocoa powder
20g caster sugar
25g dark chocolate, chopped

Whisk the milk, melted butter and vanilla extract together in a large bowl. Separate the eggs and whisk the yolk into the milk mixture.
Whisk the egg white in a separate bowl until it forms stiff peaks.
Combine all the other ingredients in a bowl.
Whisk in the wet ingredients to create a smooth batter then carefully fold in the egg white.
Cover and leave the batter to sit for 30 minutes.
Lightly oil then heat your waffle maker.
Heat the oven to low, so you can keep each waffle warm while the next one cooks.
Pour enough batter for one waffle (about a quarter) into the waffle maker, close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown on both
sides, about 2 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining batter, then top with more chocolate, whipped cream and blueberries to serve.
