Raised Waffles

These lovelies are another recipe my mother in law makes on special occasions. They are very crisp on the outside and delicate on the inside. Mouth watering & delicious!!

1/2 c. warm water
1 tsp. sugar
1 pkg. dry yeast
2 c. flour
2 c. milk, warmed
2 eggs
1/2 c. butter melted
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt

Use a large mixing bowl-the batter will rise to double it's original size-pour in water and sprinkle in the yeast packet. Let stand to dissolve for 5 minutes. Add the milk, butter, salt, sugar and flour to the yeast mixture and beat until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand overnight at room temperature. Just before cooking beat in the eggs and baking soda, stirring until well mixed. Cook in waffle iron and eat right away.
