Equipment

Ingredients

16.3 oz brownie mix 420g
1 large egg
1 cup water
⅓ cup oil
1 extra large egg
1 extra tablespoon oil
whipped topping sprinkles and chocolate sauce for topping.

Instructions

You'll also need canola or vegetable oil for the waffle maker
Preheat your waffle maker. Use a pastry brush to brush a small amount of oil on the grill. This step is vital to this recipe. My waffle maker is a non-stick one and I still grease it. Brownie batter is incredible sticky and can make a huge mess if the pan is not greased properly.
In a large mixing bowl, place the brownie mix, the ingredients needed to make the brownies, an additional egg and an additional tablespoon of oil. My brownie mix called for an egg, a cup of water and a 1/3 cup of canola oil. Stir the ingredients until you get a thick batter.

Pour the batter into your preheated waffle maker. The amount you pour in will be completely dependant on the size of your maker. Cook for 2-3 minutes before attempting to open the waffle maker. Opening the waffle maker too soon can cause the waffle to split. The waffle should appear “dry” when the waffle is ready.
Remove to a plate and serve warm with chocolate sauce, whipped cream and sprinkles.

Notes

🥡Storage

Store leftover brownie waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Freeze individually wrapped waffles for up to 2 months.

🔥Reheating

For crispy edges, reheat in:

Air fryer: 2–3 minutes
Toaster oven: 3–4 minutes
Oven: 350°F for about 5 minutes

Avoid microwaving if possible because it softens the outside.

‼️Most Important

I cannot stress enough how important it is to grease the pan with oil. I understand that this isn’t always done, in fact this is the only waffle recipe that I have that requires this step. I cleaned out the waffle maker so may times in testing this recipe and trust me, it is the worst cleaning job around. Even if your pan is a non-stick one (and my pan is), you must grease the pan.

Non-stick cooking spray doesn’t always work, it completely depends on the spray, so I always recommend oil. A neutral oil like canola, vegetable or avocado is best but olive oil will work too. You can also use melted butter or margarine if you prefer. A pastry or bbq brush will get the grease into all of those waffle cavities.
