There is a whole host of Mickey Red kitchenware available, so why not make your first piece the waffle maker? The Mickey-shaped indicator light even tells you when your maker is hot enough to start pouring.
So far, all we have been able to find, at a reasonable price, that produces proper thick Mickey-shaped waffles (and are actually in stock) is from ShopDisney. Retailing at $99.99 USD they are more expensive than the Amazon pancake/waffles but they are as close to the real thing as one is going to get available from ShopDisney.
As with the Mickey waffle maker, these aren’t as thick as you would expect from waffles. This is roughly the size of a large pancake, but still in the great shape of giant Mickey’s and Minnies.
If you are anything like me and prefer to have your waffles made from scratch, instead of premixed (personal preference, no big deal), then here is the alternative recipe for those perfect Mickey Waffles.
Beat egg yolks in a large bowl until the sugar is thoroughly mixed and the yolks are thick and sunny colored. Add the milk, cooled melted butter, and vanilla extract and stir until combined. Then add all at once flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well, but be sure not to overmix (overmixed batter will be frothy with lots of bubbles). If the mixture is too thick, add more milk until the mixture resembles that of thick pudding.
In a separate bowl, using a mixer, beat egg whites until stiff. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the batter. DO NOT MIX.
Bake, following the instructions of your waffle maker until golden brown. Please note, these waffles rise and expand considerably so use the least amount of batter needed for desired results. For those using a lock-lid waffle maker, this is especially important. For results that most resemble Mickey waffles as served at Disney World, use a Belgian waffle maker.
Serve with a variety of toppings, including butter, powdered sugar, syrup, chocolate sauce, chocolate chips, whipped cream, strawberries or other fruits, even ice cream and sprinkles.
