If you’re entertaining in a pinch, don’t fret. These chocolate-covered waffles are the perfect go-to treat for a last-minute party or even everyday snack. (I don’t judge.)

For my toppings, I chose crushed pretzels, pistachio, coconut flakes, and Maldon sea salt. I obviously gravitate toward the salty side, but feel free to opt for your own favorite additions. You could even make this snack a little DIY fondue event for your party. Let your guests choose their favorite toppings and make their own waffle bites. You won’t have to worry about conversation starters with this one.

Chocolate-Covered Waffle Bites
Serves 6 to 8

2 11-ounce bags of semisweet and/or bittersweet chocolate
6 waffles, toasted and cut into triangles
¼ cup coconut flakes
¼ cup roasted pistachios, roughly chopped
¼ cup crushed pretzel pieces
Sea salt to taste

Using a double broiler (or microwave), melt chocolate chips over medium-low heat until completely melted. Dip waffle triangles into melted chocolate, set on parchment-lined baking sheet or tray, and sprinkle as desired with coconut flakes, pretzel pieces, and sea salt. Serve!
