Bread Recipe #5 - Waffles

This is a basic waffle recipe found in most Betty Crocker cookbooks but with my own addition to make the lighter and fluffier. In place of 1/2 cup of the milk, I substitute 7-up and of course, a little chocolate never hurts (1/2-1 cup mini chocolate chips). My husband's family are second generation maple syrup makers giving us a constant supply of the best waffle topping. Ingredients: 2 eggs, 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup vegetable oil or butter, melted, 1 1/4 cups milk, 1/2 cup 7-up, 1 tablespoon granulated or brown sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, mini chocolate chips, if desired. Instructions: Heat waffle iron. Beat eggs with hand beater in medium bowl until fluffy. Beat in remaining ingredients (except chocolate chips) just until smooth. Mix in chocolate chips, if using. Pour batter from cup or pitcher onto center of hot waffle iron. Bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops. Remove waffle(s) carefully. Makes about a dozen 4-inch waffles. "Rolling in the Dough!"
