Instructions

To make the Waffles:

  4. Ladle batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook for 4 minutes or until the waffles are starting to turn golden brown and the steam stops coming from the machine.

To make the Cointreau Cream:

  1. Whip cream with Cointreau until soft peaks form. Transfer to a serving dish.

Serve:
