Coconut Tres Leches Waffles
Who doesn’t love coconut? I made some tres leches cupcakes for my darling friend Anna the other day and had left over tres leches sauce. They came out pretty wonderfully: I decided it would be best to use the leftovers for waffles the next morning. So I did. Hope you enjoy!
