Chocolate Stout Waffle Sundae with Chocolate Stout Fudge Sauce
In my world, this is dessert.
But that being said, I ate it at 3 in the afternoon (mostly because I wanted to make it for you, and I refuse to photograph using artificial light, necessitating a mid-day desert for picture taking purposes).
Breakfast in my land, is savory. Although I occasionally indulge in sugar loaded calorie bomb in the morning hours only because for some reason it’s socially acceptable, but if we step back and look at it objectively, this is dessert.
Since I put beer in your breakfast on multiple occasions (Like this, and this and don’t forget about this), I would never judge you for eating this pre-noon. BUT, it’s dessert. And it needs to be served with a stout that’s almost warm. Maybe a sipin' stout that’s been aged in a bourbon barrel, or a smokey porter.
But it’s definitely dessert. Even if you eat it in the middle of the day.
Chocolate Stout Waffle Sundae with Chocolate Stout Fudge Sauce
Ingredients
For The Sauce
- 3 tbs butter
- ½ cup stout
- 2 tbs corn syrup
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
For the Waffles

- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup milk
- 2/3 cup stout
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs divided

Instructions
- Add the butter, 1/2 cup stout and corn syrup to a sauce pan. Cook over medium high heat until butter has melted and the mixture has just started to boil.

- Add the whites to separate bowl, along with the sugar. Whip with a hand mixer until soft peaks form, about 5 minutes.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients, add the chocolate milk mixture and stir until just combined. Gently fold into the egg whites until just incorporated.

Is that Old Rasputin I spy?
Jackie February 20, 2013 um 12:25 pm
Yep. It’s one of my favorite go-to stouts. I almost always have some in the fridge. I love the bourbon barrel aged Old Rasputin, I even converted a non-beer person with that one.

Holy cow, a waffle sundae! I will eat this for breakfast, lunch, dinner AND dessert!
Jackie February 20, 2013 um 12:26 pm
It was so good! I was not planning to eat as much of it as I did. And the hot fudge sauce saves really well.

I love how wonderfully chocolatey that waffle looks! This is definitely dessert, but definitely shouldn’t only be relegated to the after-dinner hour 🙂
Jackie February 20, 2013 um 12:27 pm
I should have taken some pictures of the inside of the waffle, it was almost brownie like.
