Brunch is always a way to my heart & the perfect option to add are these Red Velvet waffles! These are super easy to make because they use cake mix! I prefer Duncan Hines but any red velvet cake mix should work!

The hearts do it for me Everytime!

Here’s the recipe:

Red Velvet Cake Mix Waffles 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup of red velvet cake mix

2 tbsp of sugar (optional)

1 cup of buttermilk or milk (I used halfu milk, half buttermilk)

1 cup of flour 

2 tbsp melted butter

2 eggs

1 tablespoon of vanilla extract 

Cake mix makes this easy!
The cutest waffle maker!

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix for about 2 minutes. Batter will have a few lumps. Pour in greased waffle iron. Cooks about a minute in my dash heart waffle iron♥️ Enjoy!

Here is a short video showing how to make the waffles.

I used my favorite heart waffle maker to keep with the Valentine’s Day theme!

Make someone feel special not just on V Day but all year round with this super easy and delicious treat!

We have all been there. We were feeling someone and everything was cool and then boom you’re not sure what happened or what went wrong but you are now being ignored or even ghosted. I have said so many times and I will say it again. Match his energy. But I also know we are human and it is easier done than said.
