My waffles turned out great, but I made many modifications: subbed whole wheat pastry flour, added 1/4 tsp salt, 2 T sugar, used 1 cup fresh buttermilk instead of milk & did not used dried butter milk, subbed evaporated milk for cream, subbed canola oil for butter. Added a couple T of milk to thin the batter. I also reduced the chocolate chips to 1/2 c, and it was still very chocolatey. I have another recipe that produces similar results with less effort, so don't know if I'll make again, but this is a delicious recipe. Thanks, BIGTIMEMENACE!

I thought these were pretty good. I didn't have buttermilk powder, so i omitted it. I didn't want the hassle of seperating the egg, so i just put it all together. This batter was thicker than most waffle recipes i tried, but these waffles were crisper than the ones i make, which i liked. Kids loved them simply because they have choc chips in them.

Great recipe. Used all milk instead of the cream and less chocolate chips. Kids loved them.

it was good my kids enjoyed it. will probably do again.

Very good, skipped beating the egg white separately, and it was still nice and light. If I have more time next time I will. Didn't have mini chips, so I chopped up regular ones in the food processer. Half a cup was perfect. Next time I might add some chopped pecans too...

I'm giving it 3 stars, even though my family thinks it only deserves 1, because the batter was light and fluffy and without the chocolate chips would probably make for a pretty good waffle. However, they are a bit time consuming and there were WAY too many chocolate chips in them. You could easily halve the chocolate chips and still have a chocolate chip waffle, only it wouldn't have such over-powering flavor. I served them topped with strawberries and whipped cream. My husband and my 5-year-old both requested that I never make these again.

They were good but a lot of work and really not that much better than waffles from a mix.

Sinful, but absolutely delicious. Next time I'll make it without chocolate chips. Just my personal preference.

These were definitely fluffy but better suited for a dessert. In the future, I will add a little sugar and omit the chocolate chips for a more "normal" breakfast.

My husband said these are the best buttermilk waffles he's tasted in a long time! I used fresh buttermilk plus some 2% for consistency, omitted the cream, and chocolate chips, and got egg yolk in the egg whites so they didn't form stiff peaks, and the waffles were still fabulous!

I have to say that these are practically foolproof. My three year old helped me make them and I completely breezed past the part of the recipe that said to beat the egg whites separately (oops). Even still, they turned out fabulous! I can only imagine how much better they'll be when I actually follow the directions!...my kids are freaking thrilled with the chocolate chips alone, which elevates me to Hero Mom status. Thanks for sharing the recipe, Kate! :)

I love this recipe. I make it as pancakes also. A family favorite. Thanks.

Delicious! It took a little bit longer to prepare than other waffle recipes I've tried, but the results were definitely worth it! Husband LOVED them! These will be the only waffles I make from now on. Thanks so much!

These waffles were so light and fluffy. I used real buttermilk, not powdered. I didn't use chocolate chips, but made them plain, then topped them with fresh cream and blueberries. Scrumptious!

I thought these were GREAT, although a lot of work. They were very light and fluffy and also crisp which for me was great! (I have a belgian waffle maker and can't always find crisp waffle recipes) My husband gave them 4 stars and my daughters both loved them. I did make a few adjustments due to lack of ingredients: I used regular buttermilk and added it after combining the wet and dry ingredients and also used a cup of regular chocolate chips. If you like very sweet waffles, these would not be for you...the chocolate chips supply most of the flavor and sweetness. Thanks for a great recipe!

These really are LIGHT and fluffy. They are probably better suited as a dessert. However, if you half the amount of chocolate chips, they probably wouldn't be too sweet! YUM! I hope a lot of people try them!
