    So Good,
    This recipe got the whole families approval. In fact, even my two children ate the waffles and they are extremely picky eaters. This will probably be our new favorite Saturday morning breakfast!

    Great recipe - our new favorite waffles! These are very addictive if you're a chocoholic (be sure to measure by weight or you may not have enough cocoa powder and chips..
    Thanks to the people that posted about needing extra sweetness and the milk + vinegar buttermilk substitute. Since milk is less viscous than buttermilk, I added one tube of "Go Gurt" (about 2 1/4 oz, but kept the liquid at 2 cups, total. The extra sweetness and thickness of the Go Gurt worked out perfectly in my opinion.
