You can use a waffle maker for these Chocolate Waffles if you have one, but we just used one of these heart shaped waffle moulds from Amazon UK.

If you want the waffles a bit crispier, then just tip them out of the mould onto a baking tray for the last 5 minutes or so.

Like them a bit more chocolatey? Then just add some extra cocoa powder, or a teaspoon of Chocolate Extract.

Finally, we need to mention cocoa powder. The nutritional values of cocoa powder do vary so you should check whichever brand you use.
