Hey there Or So She Says readers! It’s Jana from Double the Deliciousness. I’m so excited to bring you one of my favorite, easy and amazingly delicious breakfast recipes today. Overnight Chocolate Waffles….yes, you read that right!  And to top that off (literally) I have some delightful freshly made strawberry syrup.  Chocolate and strawberry; a match made in heaven.

These are so great for busy mornings, or lazy mornings in my case…I’m so NOT a morning person!  I’d way rather stay up an extra 10 minutes to make the batter and then sleep in an extra 10 minutes!  In the morning heat up your waffle iron and cook away.  The strawberry syrup can be made ahead of time as well, and can also be frozen.  So when you find some strawberries on sale, stock up and make a whole bunch of strawberry syrup to freeze.  Trust me, you’ll want a lot!  These would also be a great Easter morning breakfast.  One your whole family will love!
