Eat your heart out easy bake oven.
I am slowly adjusting to my new home, but I am still missing home and my family a little bit. Even more so (I jest), I am also missing our family waffle iron. Waffles are a great option for breakfast or for breakfast for dinner. And what is even better than waffles? Waffles that taste like cake.
I whipped up a batch of these bad boys before I left home. One whiff of this batter cooking up, and you will be transported back to your childhood days when you would cook mini-cakes with a light bulb. If you ever are overcome by the feeling of wanting to return to the easy days of childhood, make a batch of these waffles. With some cake mix and soda, you get some instant happiness.
And waffles that taste like cake for breakfast is a great way to get back in the groove for all you students returning back to your classes and books.
1 box cake mix
3 tablespoons canola oil
14-16 ounces cream soda
Sprinkles, optional
Preheat your waffle iron. In a large bowl whisk cake batter, canola oil, and 14 ounces cream soda together. Fold in sprinkles if desired. Add more cream soda to adjust consistency. Pour batter into waffle iron and cook according to manufacturer’s instructions. Serve with additional sprinkles, maple syrup, and whipped cream.
Makes approximately 10 4-inch square waffles.
I really need to get a waffle maker. Ours died a while ago and I haven't replaced it yet. It is recipes like these that make me want to run out right now and get one! 🙂
I know, seeing the pictures make me miss my old waffle maker even more!
