Ingredients
SYRUP
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup Mountain Dew soda
1/2 cup light corn syrup
WAFFLES
2 cups (about 8 1/2 oz.) all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. table salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 cup sour cream
1 cup Mountain Dew soda
4 large eggs, beaten
6 Tbsp. (3 oz.) unsalted butter, melted
Cooking spray
Step 1: The syrup
Combine sugar, Mountain Dew and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to the point, and simmer until it forms a syrup consistency. Let it cool for 10 minutes before drowning your waffles in sweetened goodness.
Step 2: The waffles
Preheat the waffle make to a medium heat. Mix together flower, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together sour cream, Mountain Dew and eggs. Combine both mixtures and whisky until smooth.
Step 3: Cook
Coat waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour about 1/3 cup batter into each quadrant (will depend on size of iron) and cook until lightly browned and firm. Serve with syrup.
