This recipe made a good waffle and my kids like them, but they tasted a little too eggy to me. Maybe because I cut back on the chocolate chips.

Outstanding recipe! You really nailed the right leavening agents on this one, Bigtimemenace! I get a laugh out of the people who complain about this recipe being too time consuming. Whisking the eggs to stiff peaks is time consuming, but there is just no substitute for the thousands of air bubbles that steam and leaven these waffles. I made these waffles this morning and everyone in the house went crazy over them! Thank You for sharing this one.

These were fantastic! I did not use chocolate chips...used toasted pecans and cinnamon. Is a fantastic base recipe to add what you want. Waffles were crisp on the outside and light and airy on the inside...well worth the effort!!

Aweseome! I cut this recipe in half for my boyfriend and I and followed it exactly. Turned out perfectly, very light would even be great without the chocolate chips.

I made this with 2 fixes. I didnt' have heavy cream so I used whole milk for the milk & the cream. The batter turned out just fine! I did everything else as directed but I didn't want the chocolate chips in so I omitted those. The batter was super light & fluffy! When I tasted them though they were a little better than a normal waffle mix; they are lighter than a waffle mix. I'm not quite sure if all the work is worth it in the end. I'll probably just use a mix next time to save time, and if I have more time I'll make this recipe.

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.

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.

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! :)
