Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 2 units Large eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons Water (warm, for thinning the cocoa batter)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease it if needed.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly into two bowls. In one of the bowls, add the cocoa powder and warm water, mixing until fully incorporated. This will create the chocolate batter.

Step 6

To create the tiger stripes, pour alternating spoonfuls of vanilla batter and chocolate batter onto the center of your waffle iron. Start with one spoonful of vanilla, followed by a smaller spoonful of chocolate directly on top, and repeat. The batters will spread to form a striped pattern.

Step 7

Close the waffle iron and cook the waffles according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, or until golden and crisp.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 9

Serve the Tiger Waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
