The treat can be re-created at home with easy-to-find ingredients — most of the components of the dish are made with pantry and baking staples. Disney recommends using a waffle iron, but if that's not available, the recipe can also be emulated by using a skillet, which will result in a pancake.

To make the waffles, the recipe calls for all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, one egg, butter, semisweet chocolate chips, and milk of choice.

The mousse topping requires espresso or strongly brewed coffee, white chocolate chips, heavy cream, and six egg yolks.

Finally, the chocolate sauce is made with heavy cream, sugar, water, corn syrup, unsweetened cocoa powder, and semisweet chocolate chips.
