Cocktail Waffles (with Alcoholic Toppings)
The waffle is a classic dessert, but it can be taken to a new level by adding a touch of adult experience. The idea of cocktail-inspired waffles was first used in New York dessert bars, where classic sweets were supplemented with alcoholic elements. Imagine the smell of freshly baked waffles filling the kitchen while the alcoholic whipped cream gently spreads on top. The freshness of the strawberries, the warmth of the rum, and the citrus notes of the triple sec create an exciting combination. Perfect choice for romantic evenings or friendly gatherings, where you can offer your guests not only delicious but also a special experience. Tip: Put the cream in the fridge for a few minutes before serving, so it stays more stable when serving!

Preparation Steps
1
Melt the butter over low heat, then let it cool slightly. Tip: It shouldn't be hot, otherwise it may curdle when mixed with the eggs.
2
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk, vanilla extract, sugar, and melted butter. Sift in the flour, then mix until smooth. Finally, add the baking powder. Tip: If you find the batter too thick, thin it with a little milk.
3
Preheat the waffle iron and grease it with butter or oil. Pour in the batter and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Tip: Do not open the iron during baking, as the waffle may fall apart.
4
While the waffles are cooking, wash the strawberries and cut them in half. Important: Remove the green leaves, as they are not suitable for serving!
5
In a small bowl, combine the whipped cream with the rum and triple sec liqueur. Tip: Chill the ingredients beforehand to keep the cream more stable.
6
Spoon the alcoholic whipped cream onto the finished waffle, arrange the strawberry pieces on top, and garnish as desired. Tip: The sweetness of the strawberries balances the intensity of the alcoholic cream nicely.
