A Belgian Waffle is lighter, thicker, and has bigger 'dimples' than a
regular waffle-- so it stands to reason that the recipe would be
different. [are the waffles in Belgium, 'Belgian'?]

I'd *start* with the recipe that came with the waffle maker.

Then I'd try the recipe on the Bisquick box. [it is the one I use
for regular waffles after trying dozens of much harder recipes]

Then I'd start experimenting.
