With the cold almost gone and the flowers starting to bloom I think we all are ready for Spring to finally be here! I making my own Spring today with these Spring Velvet Waffles.
Today is my husbands birthday! I normally make him a Tiramisu because that is the only kind of cake he really really enjoys! Happy Birthday Hubby!! 🙂 So these waffles. As I type this I hear the birds singing outside and it just makes my heart light. The sun is shining and we are ready for warmer temperatures. Right now I am enjoying colors and budding flowers and I want all of my foods to be pastel! Is that weird??
Well that is how these waffles came to be. I was running to the store to get a cake mix to add to my waffle mix and I came upon the new Duncan Hines Spring Velvet Cake Mix. It was not my intention to make these but I saw the color and though “Oh how pretty!” So I grab it, brought it home and made these delicious waffles! My kids could not get enough of them and because the box contains two packages of cake mix then I had a ton of waffles on hand! This is great if you are planning a brunch or a special breakfast soon! It can feed a crowd! If you don’t have a crowd you can always put them in the freezer, which is where the rest of mine are right now, and toast them up later! ENJOY!

What a creative idea! I love how easy these are to make with cake mixes. I might need to mix some up this weekend.

I would love a big batch of these right now!!! Pretty please!!!
Yes you may! 🙂
Waffles are definitely on my weekend list to make now! Looks great!
These waffles sound so simple, and look so delicious! I don’t think I have ever made waffles before (I think it’s because the thought of cleaning out a waffle iron terrifies me). These look so good that I may take out my (unused) waffle iron!
