Grease your waffle maker/griddle with some oil.

Follow the instructions of your waffle maker. Adjust your waffle maker based on how brown and crispy you want your waffles to be. I adjusted mine to medium brownness/crispiness.

Wait for it to be preheated then add one scoop of the batter to each slot of your waffle maker. If you have a small waffle maker, then make one at a time. Waffles are tasty even when they're cooled.

It takes about 4 mins for my waffle maker and it's done!

all purpose flour or cake flour

tsp cream of tartar

tbsp milk

Whipped Cream

Separate 4 egg whites into the large bowl and pop it in the freezer for about 10-15mins. Split 2 egg yolks in another mixing bowl, and the remaining 2 yolks can be kept in the fridge for other recipes. We're only using 2 egg yolks in this recipe.

Add sifted flour and baking powder and mix well. Don't overmix it.

Add cream of tartar and salt to the mixture.

Heat up 1 or 2 large pans over low heat (or the lowest heat on gas stove). Grease your pan(s) lightly with oil and wipe off excess oil with a paper towel. If you have two large pans then you can make all 6 pancakes in one go.

Scoop 2 large (almost overflowing) tablespoons of the mixture to the pan for each pancake, making 3 pancakes each pan.

Cover it for about 5 mins. Then add another 1 tablespoon of the mixture on top of the pancakes. Don't spread the mixture sideways if you want thicc pancakes. Stack it up high!

Add about a tablespoon of hot water to the pan and then cover it to let it steam for another 5 mins.

If you have any extra batter, stack it on top, add more hot water, then steam it for another 2 mins or so.

Then open the lid and gently flip the pancakes over. Add more water to the pan and cook the pancakes for another 4 mins.

Your pancakes are done! Add your favourite toppings, whipped cream or maple syrup. Dust some sugar free powdered sugar on top and enjoy!

Place the chocolate chips and peanut butter in a medium bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals on 50% power, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

Pour a little bit of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of a large bowl. Add about a third of the cereal, a third of the remaining chocolate mixture, and repeat two more times. Using a rubber spatula, gently mix it all together until all of the cereal is completely coated. Place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes.

Place ½ cup of the powdered sugar in a gallon-size zip-top bag, top with half of the cereal mixture, another ½ cup of the powdered sugar, the rest of the cereal mixture, then the remaining ½ cup of powdered sugar. Seal the bag, then shake it very well until all of the cereal is coated with powdered sugar.

Spread the mixture out onto a wax-paper lined sheet pan to cool and set, about 30 minutes, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
