CHRISTMAS TREE WAFFLES

Make a new holiday memory this year – fluffy-on-the-inside and crisp-in-all-the-right-places Christmas Tree Waffles. McCormick® vanilla extract adds welcome warmth to this traditional waffle batter recipe. Green food coloring, mini chocolate candy "ornaments" and a dusting of powdered sugar "snow" make this holiday treat festive, flavorful and fun!

INGREDIENTS
 4 Servings

• 2 cups waffle mix
• 1 1/3 cups milk

PREPARATION

1. Preheat round waffle iron. Spray with no stick cooking spray. Mix all ingredients, except confectioners' sugar and candy pieces, until blended.
2. Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter onto center of hot waffle iron. Close lid. Cook about 5 minutes or until no longer steaming. Carefully remove waffle. Repeat with remaining batter.
