Belgian Waffles (II)

By Rumblingtummy @RumblingTummi
Lately I have been yearning for Belgian Waffles.  Perhaps I fell in love with those that I ate recently and was eager to see whether I can produce the same result.  
I don't really know how a good waffle should be but my personal choice will be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.   
Now, I wish I have a deep waffle iron to work.  Somehow, it just taste different if it is a thin waffle.  Is it a mind game?   Haiz... the "must have" and the "nice to have" debate.
Some day some day.....
Belgian Waffles (II)
Findings: The waffle yield a crispy and yet fluffy texture.  If only I have a thick waffle iron, I think this will be as good as those available outside.
Now I have to churn out a batch of ice cream to go with this recipe real soon.
Definitely a keeper.
