Cinnamon Toast Waffles with Cream Cheese icing
Are you an early riser and want to surprise your little minions?
Again, smell-o-vision would go a long way here
Waffles:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups warm milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten
Cinnamon Topping:
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Cream Cheese Topping:
1 1/2 cups confectioners'
sugar
1 (3 ounce) package cream
cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat a waffle iron
according to manufacturer's instructions.
Whisk flour, white sugar,
baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl.
Beat warm milk, 1/3 cup
melted butter, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract together in another bowl.
Add milk mixture to flour
mixture and stir until batter is lumpy and just-moistened.
Working in batches, ladle
batter into preheated waffle iron and cook until waffles are golden and crisp,
3 to 5 minutes.
Stir brown sugar, 1/2 cup
melted butter, and cinnamon together in a bowl.
Beat confectioners' sugar,
cream cheese, 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/8
teaspoon salt together in another bowl.
Place waffles on a plate and
drizzle cinnamon mixture and cream cheese mixture over the top. As you can see by the pictures, I used a zip lock bag to create a piping bag to pipe the toppings onto the pancakes. Eh, what ever works, right?
Comments and suggestions are ALWAYS welcome.
