One of my friends has been hyping me up as some kind of waffle king (his logic was "anyone who has two waffle irons must be good at making waffles"). The result of this undeserved hype is that I've now been challenged to a Waffle-Off this Friday!
Well, I can't very well start my career in competitive waffling with just a standard mix and following the directions on the container. Last night was my first practice batch. The usual waffle mix, but replacing water with Rogue Chocolate Stout, and adding a couple handfuls of chocolate chips. The end result was fantastic. It was great even by itself (though butter and syrup didn't hurt it at all). I ate half of the first waffle before the second one was even complete.
Tonight I'm going to try a different beer, Paulaner Hefeweizen, with caramel chips instead of chocolate chips. I expect it to be pretty good, but hard to say if it can top last night's chocolate waffle. Either way, I think I'll make a good showing.
