It’s my birthday and I’ll cry eat all the cake if I want to!

For this special bday cake {yes I made my own cake!}, I combined some of my favorite things: chocolate, strawberries, Nutella, and waffles! I was inspired by a video I saw last year from My Cupcake Addiction and decided to create my own at home. This recipe looks impressive and will make any chocolate lover drool! Serve it for a birthday or just about any celebration.

Nutella Brownie Waffle Cake with Strawberries

Ingredients

  • 1 family size box of brownie mix
  • 2 eggs according to the back of the box
  • 1/4 cup water according to the back of the box
  • 2/3 cup vegetable oil according to the back of the box
  • 1 medium sized tub of Nutella
  • 16 oz container of strawberries stems removed and sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle maker.
  • In a large bowl mix together the brownie mix and additional ingredients from the back of the box {usually water, oil, and eggs}
  • Spray nonstick spray onto the waffle maker so that it’s well coated.
  • Place a large spoonful into each waffle section. Do not overfill.
  • Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until waffle maker ready light is on.
  • Remove waffles to a plate to cool and repeat with remaining mix.
  • Spoon Nutella into a zip top bag and cut off a corner tip.
  • When waffles have cooked and cooled add a dollop of Nutella to the center of a platter or cake stand. This will help secure the waffles.
  • Place one waffle in the center of the platter.
  • Drizzle Nutella over the waffle.
  • Add strawberries so it covers the entire top of the waffle and so the tips of the strawberries poke out from the waffle.
  • Drizzle more Nutella over the strawberries.
  • Place another waffle on top to make a waffle sandwich. Repeat the previous two steps until you’ve stacked your waffle cake four waffles high.
  • On your top layer, fill in the waffle squares entirely so that it’s completely covered.
  • Pipe Nutella over the edges so that it looks like the Nutella is dripping down the sides of the cake.
  • Top with a couple of strawberries on top and serve.
