Ty's Mom's Belgian Waffles

So, Ty LOVES waffles, but sadly isn't a Bisquick guy. His mom spoiled him with these yummy waffles. The fist time I tried to make them was 2 years ago and they were disgusting! (I think I didn't measure the salt... oops!) Anyway, we made them again today and they were great. Definateley worth the extra time. Sorry - no pictures. Our neighbors were here with their cute kiddo and the place was a mad house. Someday we'll have enough space to have people over comfortably. Anyway, Ty sent this email to me with the recipe in it:

Michelle,

I’m immortalizing the waffle recipe by e-mailing it to you. Now it will be in more places. We could even put it on the recipe blog.

Real Belgian Waffles

1 pkg dry yeast
2 cups lukewarm milk
4 eggs separated
1 tsp vanilla
2.5 cups sifted flour
½ tsp salt1 tbsp sugar (increase slightly by sprinkling a little when dissolving yeast)
½ c. melted butter

Sprinkle yeast (and sugar) over warm milk. Stir to dissolve. Beat egg yolks and add to yeast mixture w/ vanilla. Stir together flour, salt, and sugar. Add to liquid ingredients. Stir in melted butter and combine thoroughly. Beat egg whites until stiff. Carefully fold into batter. Let mixture stand in a warm place about 45 min or until mixture doubles in bulk.

Behold the power of the Belgian Waffle.
