Notes
Preheat the waffle iron properly to ensure even cooking.
Use a ladle or measuring cup to pour the batter onto the waffle iron for consistent portion sizes.
Spread the batter evenly using a spatula to achieve a symmetrical heart shape.
Avoid opening the waffle iron too early to prevent the waffles from sticking or breaking.
Lightly grease the waffle iron before each batch to prevent sticking.
Adjust the cooking time as needed to achieve the desired level of crispiness.
