two quart-sized Ziploc bags
small pan
waffle iron

Ingredients

Waffles

3¾ cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
2¼ cup milk
2 eggs
3 tbsp butter melted
4 food coloring colors of choice
spray oil

Stout Syrup

12 oz dark stout or dark beer
1¾ cup sugar
½ tbsp butter

Instructions

Waffles

Whisk the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Add the milk, eggs, and melted butter and whisk until no lumps remain.
Separate the batter into two quart-sized Ziploc bags.
Add 4-5 drops of food coloring to each bag. Close bag.
Using your hands, mix together from the outside of the bag until you get a cohesive color. Repeat for the remaining bags/colors.
Heat up waffle iron and spray with nonstick spray.
Cut a small corner off each bag and pipe squiggly lines over your waffle iron, repeat with the rest of the color.
Close the top and cook until batter is firm. You donʻt want to overcook, or it will turn the colors brown.

Stout Syrup

Heat beer and sugar over medium heat until foamy.
Bring to a gentle simmer and cook 30-40 minutes or until it has a thick consistency.
Melt the butter in the syrup and serve with the waffles.

Notes

Suggestions for Stouts:

The stout is a beer with a dark body and creamy notes! According to Harpoon Brewery, this flavor is created from the use of darker, more aromatic malt that has been roasted or kilned until it acquires a chocolate color.
