With the cold almost gone and the flowers starting to bloom I think we all are ready for Spring to finally be here! I making my own Spring today with these Spring Velvet Waffles.
Today is my husbands birthday! I normally make him a Tiramisu because that is the only kind of cake he really really enjoys! Happy Birthday Hubby!! 🙂 So these waffles. As I type this I hear the birds singing outside and it just makes my heart light. The sun is shining and we are ready for warmer temperatures. Right now I am enjoying colors and budding flowers and I want all of my foods to be pastel! Is that weird??
Well that is how these waffles came to be. I was running to the store to get a cake mix to add to my waffle mix and I came upon the new Duncan Hines Spring Velvet Cake Mix. It was not my intention to make these but I saw the color and though “Oh how pretty!” So I grab it, brought it home and made these delicious waffles! My kids could not get enough of them and because the box contains two packages of cake mix then I had a ton of waffles on hand! This is great if you are planning a brunch or a special breakfast soon! It can feed a crowd! If you don’t have a crowd you can always put them in the freezer, which is where the rest of mine are right now, and toast them up later! ENJOY!

These waffles sound so simple, and look so delicious! I don’t think I have ever made waffles before (I think it’s because the thought of cleaning out a waffle iron terrifies me). These look so good that I may take out my (unused) waffle iron!

Hope you pulled it out and used it! 🙂
