FOR THE HOT CHOCOLATE WAFFLES:
3/4 cups white whole wheat flour
3/4 cup oat flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
pinch salt
1- 1 1/2 cups milk

FOR THE VANILLA BEAN CREME SYRUP:
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups sugar
seeds scraped from 1/2 vanilla pod (or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract)

FOR THE TOPPINGS:
1 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
1/2 cup jumbo chocolate chips

FOR THE HOT CHOCOLATE WAFFLES:
In a large bowl, beat together all ingredients for the waffles until smooth. Add enough milk to make the batter fairly thin, but not super runny. It shouldn't be thick and bloppy. Spoon into a hot waffle iron & bake according to mannufacturer instructions.

FOR THE VANILLA BEAN CREME SYRUP:
In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients. Heat over medium high heat, stirring constantly until steaming hot. Spoon over fresh waffles, topped with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips. The syrup should be hot enough to melt the marshmallows & chocolate chips.
