Preparation
Crush the roasted hazelnuts, melt the chocolate and wash the fruit. Place the cream and mascarpone in the freezer for 15 minutes before use.
Fill waffle cavities with toasted hazelnut pieces.
Cover the hazelnuts with melted chocolate.
Place blueberries randomly on chocolate. Press lightly. Chill for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the whipped cream:
Place the cold mascarpone in a large bowl, add the cold cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Whip to obtain a compact whipped cream. Transfer to a piping bag.
Poach the whipped cream over the chocolate-filled cavities. Place a few raspberries on top of the whipped cream balls. Sprinkle with crushed toasted hazelnuts, and you're ready to go!
Observations
How to store these filled waffles?
We recommend that you eat them as soon as you've poached the whipped cream. You can keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 or 2 days, just topped with chocolate, hazelnuts and blueberries.
Can I replace the filling?
Of course!
-If you're a fan of speculaas, you can fill the cavities with crumbled speculaas and speculaas paste, and top with whipped cream and cookie pieces.
-If you're a banoffee fan, you can fill the cavities with caramel and speculaas, then cover with chantilly and banana pieces.
-If you're a fan of tiramisu, make our famous choco-coffee spread, fill the cavities with it, cover with chantilly and grate chocolate over the top or sprinkle with cocoa powder.
As you can see, you can easily fill your waffles with inspiration from your favorite desserts! Vary the pleasures by using seasonal fruits. Tell us your favorite combination in the comments!

How do I toast the hazelnuts?
