Belgian Waffle Mix

In a small bowl, dissolve 2 1/4 tsp. yeast in 1/2 cup warm milk.  Add a pinch of sugar to speed up the process.  Proof it for about 10 minutes, or until nice and foamy.

In a large bowl, mix together 3/4 cup melted butter, 2 1/2 cup warm milk, 3 egg yolks (reserve the whites), 1/2 cup sugar, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 2 tsp. vanilla.  Mix until well blended.  Add yeast mixture. 

Add 4 cups of flour, one cup at a time.

Whip egg whites until they form little peaks.  Fold into mixture.

Let rise for about 1 hour.
