Strawberry and Chocolate Waffle Brunch Board with berries, jam, chocolate, and whipped cream
Strawberry and Chocolate Waffle Brunch Board

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and since it’s on the weekend I decided to make my loves a Strawberry and Chocolate Waffle Brunch Board!

I love a good charcuterie board and we all love brunch, especially waffles lately, so this was a no brainer I knew they’d love. Yes I surprised them a little early, it’s going to be a couple weeks of extra love this year I decided.

Last year I bought single 4″ waffle makers (we have 2) for the kids to make waffles during the week and for me to make extras for toaster waffles since everyone is working/learning from home. They are quick and much easier than the kids, or myself, breaking out the big Belgian waffle maker. They are Dash and sold at many stores, including Target, and online only $10 each and worth every penny. When I saw there was a cute heart one and I had an email for 20% off and it was in stock for local curbside pick up I had to grab one knowing this is what I’d do with it. Even if it was full price ($10) on Amazon I would have ordered it.

I decided to make Chocolate Waffles and Strawberry Waffles for our board. While it was more waffles than we needed for the board (shown is 1/4 a batch of each, the hearts make about twice as many waffles as the 4″ waffle maker) they are perfect for reheating and toasting up during the week for breakfast and the chocolate wants even work as a quick and easy dessert topped with a scoop of ice cream and your favorite toppings.

Toppings are all up to you, I say use what you like and what you have on hand. We used raspberry chia jam because we had some to use (but could easily sub a strawberry jam or puree), Hu Chocolate Gems, homemade chocolate sauce, whipped cream (could sub yogurt), and fresh berries. Only thing maybe missing is peanut butter but I save that for leftover chocolate waffles.
