Cooking Tips

• Make sure to preheat the waffle iron before pouring the batter to ensure even cooking.
• Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in tough waffles. It's okay if there are a few lumps.
• If you don't have a heart-shaped waffle iron, you can use a regular round waffle iron instead.
• To keep the waffles warm while cooking the remaining batter, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C).

Storage and Serving

• Leftover waffles can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• To reheat the waffles, place them in a toaster or toaster oven until warmed through and crispy.
• Serve the waffles with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
