Make It Happen

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs lightly. Then, whisk in the buttermilk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix!

Step 3

Preheat your waffle maker and lightly spray it with cooking spray or brush with vegetable oil. Then, ladle a heaping 1/2 c. of batter onto the waffle iron. Quickly drop in 6-7 small pieces of cookie dough (about the size of a dime).

Step 4

Close the waffle iron and cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions, usually 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.

Step 5

Remove the waffles and keep them warm while you prepare the whipped cream.

Step 6

Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed for about 3-4 minutes until medium peaks form. (Medium peaks are thicker than soft peaks but still hold their shape without being too stiff.)

Tip: If you accidentally over-whip and the cream looks curdled, simply add a little more cold heavy cream and gently fold it in with a spatula until smooth.

Step 7

A plate with three Belgian Cookie Dough Waffles topped with homemade whipped cream. Someone is pouring syrup over the waffles. There's a plate full of waffles in the background.

Use the whipped cream immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
