Red Velvet waffles

[Winger Ed.]

I've been gathering waffle recipes lately.
I came across one the other day that's pretty good and also combines breakfast with dessert.
It's out one of the Doocy family cookbooks.
Dad is a anchor on Fox, and his son is the Fox reporter that gives the White House correspondent fits in her briefings.


It calls for Red Velvet cake mix from the grocery store but should work well with others too-- except that gross carrot cake.
Like putting coconut in cake frosting.... It's just wrong.

1 box of cake mix.
1 cup water.
2 eggs.
5 Tbs. vegetable oil.

Mix and make the waffles.

Topping is like the real fancy Belgian waffles with all the yeast and the waiting for it to rise.

1 eight ounce block of cream cheese.
6 Tbs. milk.
1 Tsp. vanilla.
Mix. Add 3 cups powdered sugar and mix it in. It calls for 4 cups, but that a little too much.

Cover waffle with the topping in a ring shape. Fill the center with whipped cream.
To make it healthy and part of a well balanced diet---- put a bunch of blue berries and sliced straw berries over that.

I just drooled on my keyboard.

Dang..........

Those sound like they would make a good dessert.

Glad ya liked 'em.

I also make cookies with cake mix and they turn out pretty well.
You mix it up like the box directions, just leave out the water.
