Chocolate Waffles With Toasted Almonds

While a dedicated chocoholic might consider this waffle to be perfectly appropriate for breakfast, it's intended to be served as a dessert, with toppings like vanilla or chocolate frozen yogurt, fat-free chocolate syrup and toasted almonds. Or, you can layer a frozen dessert between two waffles to create a sandwich.
