Ingredients
1 cup self-raising flour, sifted
1 1/2 tbsp castor sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
150ml buttermilk
70g butter, melted
150ml cream
100g dark chocolate buttons
200g pitted prunes, cut in half
100ml water
2 tbsp brown sugar
60ml brandy
4 scoops vanilla ice-cream
Method
For waffles, place flour and castor sugar in a bowl. Stir through egg, buttermilk and butter to make a smooth batter.
For chocolate sauce, bring cream to the boil and pour over chocolate, stirring with a whisk until smooth.
Place prunes, water, brown sugar and brandy in a saucepan and bring to the boil over a high heat. Cook until prunes have absorbed water and are a little syrupy.
Cook waffles in a waffle maker. Place on a plate, covered with foil, and keep warm in the oven. Serve warm waffles with ice-cream, chocolate sauce, prunes and syrup.
