2Whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla. Fold into the dry mix until just combined, then fold in the chopped chocolate.
3Brush the iron with butter. Pour in batter to cover two thirds of the grid, close and cook 4 to 5 minutes.
4Cool for a minute on a wire rack so the outside crisps.
5Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Serve it like this

Lay a warm waffle on a plate, set a scoop of ice cream in the centre and scatter a few chocolate shavings over the top.
