Breakfast for the Icon In All Of Us


Your day is hectic enough due to the demands of being a Icon or a Role Model, what better way to start your day than with a nice breakfast. This recipe is just what the doctor ordered and it is one you should not ignore.

Don't stop by McDonalds and get those flimsy pancakes or pop a frozen waffle in the toaster. Try these Chocolate Waffles with Rasberry Syrup and reside in breakfast heaven. You can prepare the ingredients a day before and when you arise, you can simply turn on the gridlde and get to cooking.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoons salt
1/3 cup melted semisweet chocolate
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup plus 5 tablespoons melted butter
2 egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
2 pints fresh raspberries
Dash orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)
2 cups sweetened whipped cream
Confectioners' sugar

Directions
Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl. In another bowl beat the chocolate, egg yolks and vanilla lightly. Beat the milk and 1/2 cup of the butter into the egg mixture. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture. Stir until combined yet still slightly lumpy.

In a small bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter, leaving little fluffs of egg whites. Pour 1 cup batter onto grids of a preheated, lightly greased waffle iron (grease the waffle iron with 2 tablespoons of the butter, in all). Close the lid quickly: do not open during baking. Bake according to the manufacturer's directions.

Melt the remaining butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar, stirring constantly until it dissolves, about 1 minute. Add the raspberries and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the orange liqueur. Flame the liqueur and continue to cook for 1 minute. Serve the waffles with the raspberry syrup and sweetened whipped cream. Garnish with confectioners' sugar.

It is Good Friday and you deserve something Good!!!

Enjoy
