Malted Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich!!

 



It's a Baked Sunday Morning! and a challenge not to be missed this week. Now I must admit I made these yummy waffles a few months ago and I've been waiting for an excuse to try them again. At the moment I'm a bit obsessed with turning everything in to some form of an ice cream sandwich, they're just so darn delicious! You can find the recipe here.

You'll need a waffle iron for this recipe, they don't cost much and make a wonderful gift. The batter is easy to whip up in a few minutes and consists of flour, malt powder, brown sugar, bi-carb soda, baking powder, salt, eggs, buttermilk (I used milk soured with lemon juice) and melted butter.

I kept my waffles warm in the oven on a wire wrack/tray to prevent them forming a 'soggy bottom' whilst cooking the rest.

My table was set with little pots of Belgium dark and milk chocolate drops, the last of my batch of birthday cake crumbs and good quality maple syrup.

Livvy Lou enjoyed her waffles which pulled apart into precious little love hearts.

Tali took the first bite out of my special waffle ice cream sandwich that was layered with choc chips, vanilla ice cream, birthday cake crumb and topped with maple syrup.

And I had mine as Matt and Renato from Baked Explorations suggests, drizzled with butter, choc chips and maple syrup, delish!

 This recipe is a keeper and the only adjustment I had to make was using milk that I soured with the juice of one lemon, as I forgot to buy the buttermilk.

Make them, Eat them, Enjoy them!
