A recipe for the most delicious crispy Christmas waffles with Christmas spices, nougat and marzipan. These waffles are inspired by the popular Mozart balls and taste wonderfully of Christmas with marzipan, nougat and chocolate. The batter is light and fluffy with buttermilk, cinnamon and cardamom. When baking, diced marzipan and nougat go on the batter, so they are baked into the waffles. They are then topped with whipped cream and chocolate sauce. A true Sunday treat.
I used a double waffle iron from Imerco’s own Cook & Baker range, which makes it quick to bake lots of waffles when the cravings hit. It has a non-stick coating, so it is easy to clean.
The batter is quick to mix, and you can make a double batch and freeze the rest of the waffles. Also try my homemade Mozart balls or crispy Christmas waffles. Enjoy!

Ingredients
Instructions
Waffles
Melt the butter and let it cool.
Whisk eggs, buttermilk and milk together. Mix flour, cinnamon, cardamom, sugar, vanilla sugar and salt and whisk it into the batter until smooth. Finally stir in the melted butter. Let the batter rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Heat a waffle iron.
Pour about 50 ml batter into the waffle iron and add marzipan and nougat. Top with a little more batter. Bake for about 3-4 minutes.
Let them cool on a wire rack.
Chocolate sauce
Heat the cream in a small pan until it just starts to bubble. Add the chocolate and stir gently into a smooth, glossy sauce.
Top the waffles with whipped cream and chocolate sauce. Enjoy!
