Chocolatey, ooey, gooey, and delicious, these brownie waffles are an epic dessert or treat!
Topped with creamy vanilla ice cream and drizzled with chocolate syrup and whatever other toppings you like!
There are so many uses for a waffle iron beyond the traditional waffles that we make for breakfast. I use mine to make savory cornbread waffles, for hash brown cakes, and THIS brownie waffle deliciousness.
The biggest problem I have is not being able to make them fast enough to keep up with the family! As quickly as I make them, they get claimed immediately.
While I have used box brownie mix in the waffle iron, I have found that it is way too sticky and make a massive mess. I suspect it might be related to the oil/sugar/dry ingredient ratios!
My boys LOVE when I dig out the square waffle iron. I usually use our big Belgian waffle maker for our breakfast waffles so they know when I pull out the little one, something amazing is about to happen.

Kylee’s Notes & FAQs
This recipe makes 6 square waffles in my waffle iron. In my big belgian waffle iron, it makes 3. You will need a cup of batter vs the 1/2 cup I use in the smaller one.
How to store leftovers
Cooked and cooled waffles can be stored in a sealed container for a few days. To heat, pop in the oven or a toaster. Waffles can also be frozen (wrapped well) for up to 4 months.
Topping ideas
Whipped cream, grated chocolate, vanilla or chocolate scooped ice cream, chopped nuts, maraschino cherries – anything!
