Waffle Bar

A great way to end your Movie Marathon Slumber Party is with a breakfast featuring a Waffle Bar. Who doesn't like waffles? Feeding a crowd with homemade waffles will be a real challenge. I recommend using Belgian waffles from your grocer's freezer case. Use the oven directions for a crowd. All you need to do is put the desired number of waffles on a cookie sheet - count out one per guest to start. "Bake" waffles in a pre-heated 350 degree F oven for 5 minutes. To ensure crispness on both sides - turn them over with tongs at the half-way mark.
Serve waffles with bowls of seasonal fruits - fresh or frozen. Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and peaches all go well with waffles. Add syrup, chopped nuts, chocolate chips and whipped cream. If any kids want a second waffle, you can "bake" a another batch in 5 minutes. Leftover toppings can be combined into a fruit salad for lunch or dinner. Or can be used to top ice cream sundaes for dessert at dinner.
