1 pkg dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
1 3/4 cups lukewarm milk (scalded, then skimmed)
2 cups flour
2-3 tablespoons sugar
1 tsp salt
3 eggs
1/4 cup butter, softened

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add a pinch of sugar. Leave 10 minutes to proof - yeast should show that it's active by creating a foam, and bubbling.

Add all ingredients to a large mixer bowl and beat with a rotary beater until smooth.

Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from draft for 1 1/2 hours. Stir down batter. Cover and refrigerator overnight.

Stir down batter. Pour onto center of a hot, seasoned waffle iron.

Bake each waffle about 5 minutes, or until steaming stops.
