Cute rainbow waffles with whipped cream clouds and a fun "treasure" at the end of the rainbow!

More About This Recipe

  • Follow these easy, colorful Rainbow Waffles with whipped cream clouds to the end of the rainbow, and you'll find a mini pot of treasure! Can you imagine a more fun way to begin the day?!?!? These cute waffles are actually much easier than you think, and are a blast to make! Then top them with some whipped cream “clouds” and my favorite little “treasure” at the end of the rainbow – some Lucky Charms! Cute? Oh so cute! For my batter use gel food coloring to make nice and vibrant colors. Be sure to portion your batter so that the larger colors (like red and orange) have a little extra batter. Then pop each color of batter into a piping bag. (Or you can use Ziplocks and just cut the end off, OR just spoon in the batter.) For extra credit points, you can also make some cute blue clouds using the blue batter. Or you can go for the real deal and make some fluffy whipped cream clouds! Over-beat your whipped cream just a tad to make it a little ruffle-y like clouds. Then serve with some Lucky Charms as your treasure, and enjoy tasting the rainbow!
