Stuffed Waffles with Chocolate Cream
Waffle or gaufre
As reported by Wikipedia “the gaufre is a Belgian and French pastry, crunchy outside and soft inside, cooked on double hot plates that give it the characteristic grid appearance. There are several variations, typical of Belgium, France, Germany, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and the United States of America”. In this version, I was inspired by a version my mom used to make, small waffles filled with cream and then paired, they were my favorite! Try them!
