1jarNutella

Instructions
In a microwaveable bowl, pour the milk and water together and microwave for 2-3 minutes. To the milk, add the yeast, sugar, honey and whisk until smooth.
Put a dish cloth over the bowl and let rest for 5-10 minutes, or until the yeast becomes bubbly.
In a large mixing bowl, use a dough hook and mix together the butter and eggs until they are smooth.
Slowly pour in the yeast/milk mixture to the bowl and mix until incorporated.
Add the vanilla and mix. Add the flour one cup at a time an dmix on low speed. Continue to add the flour slowly as the dough starts to pull away from the edge of the bowl.
The dough will be pretty sticky, but needs to be stiff enough to form into a ball. Add the pearled sugar to the dough and mix until combined.
Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let rise until the dough doubles in size.
Once the dough has risen, heat a waffle iron to medium heat. Spray with cooking spray.
With a spoon, spoon out a large ball of dough and form into a 1/2-1/4 inch flat circle. Place the dough into the center of the waffle iron and cook.
Cook for several minutes on lower heat, or until the waffle is golden brown. Remove waffles and serve with favorite toppings.
