Pancake Tuesday Chocolate Waffles

My good friend Amber and I share the same birthday. She gave this wonderful piece of cooking history to me. What a fun gift is has been. It is interesting to see what people ate in the 50's. Some food I am pretty sure was based on a dare.

This recipe is not one of those. Chocolate waffles served with ice cream and chocolate sauce is a fun change.
