Black Sesame Mochi Waffles with Chocolate Sauce

Ingredients

    Black Sesame Mochi Waffles

    • 3 tbsp Black Sesame Crunchy Butter
    • ½ cup granulated sugar (100g), adjust to taste
    • 1 egg, can sub chia or flax egg
    • 1 tbsp vanilla
    • 1 cup choice of milk (240g)
    • 1 ½ cup mochiko flour (240g)
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • ½ tsp salt

    Chocolate Sauce

    • 2/3 cup chocolate chips (113g)
    • ⅓ cup heavy cream (80g), or ¼ cup milk of choice (60g)

    Whipped Cream

    • ⅓ cup heavy cream or coconut cream (80g)
    • 2 tbsp powdered sugar

    Directions

      For black sesame mochi waffles

      1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth.

      2. Stir in Black Sesame Crunchy Butter until combined.

      3. While whisking, slowly pour in the milk.

      4. Mix in the mochiko flour, baking powder, and salt, until there are no dry spots of flour remaining.

      5. Lightly grease your preheated waffle maker.

      6. Add in waffle batter. Depending on your waffle maker, the amount of batter can range from a few tablespoons to ¾ cup. For mine, I used 2-3 tablespoons of batter.

      7. Cook waffles for about 5 minutes until outsides are lightly brown and crisp. Transfer to a wire rack or plate.

      For chocolate sauce

      1. Combine chocolate chips and heavy cream into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted.

      2. If you want a thinner sauce, add in more heavy cream. Alternatively, if you want it thicker, melt in an extra 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips at a time.

      For whipped cream

      1. In a medium mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar using a whisk, handheld mixer, or stand mixer until firm peaks.

      Assembly

      1. Place waffles on a plate and add a dollop of whipped cream.

      2. Drizzle Black Sesame Crunchy Butter and chocolate on top of the waffles. Enjoy!
