Ingredients
Scale
Waffle Batter
- 1 box Funfetti cake mix
- ½ cup vegetable oil (or canola oil)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
Toppings
- Homemade whipped cream
- Maple syrup
- Sprinkles
- Chocolate sauce
- Caramel sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: Using a hand mixer or a whisk, combine the Funfetti cake mix, vegetable oil, milk, and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, ensuring an even texture for your waffles.
- Preheat and cook waffles: Heat your waffle maker to medium-high heat. When hot, pour approximately ¾ cup of batter onto the waffle iron. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the waffles are golden and cooked through. Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve the waffles hot, topped generously with homemade whipped cream, maple syrup, colorful sprinkles, and drizzles of chocolate or caramel sauce to enhance the birthday cake theme.
Notes
- Do not overfill the waffle maker to prevent batter overflow during cooking.
- Adjust cooking time slightly depending on your waffle maker for optimal crispness.
- You can substitute milk with a non-dairy alternative if desired.
- Store leftover waffles in an airtight container and reheat in a toaster or oven for best texture.
- For an extra fluffy texture, separate the eggs and beat the egg whites to soft peaks before folding them into the batter.
