Receta Cherry Cheesecake Sour Cream Waffles
There is one way, and one way only, to eat waffles. I’m convinced of this.
Really, the only thing you need besides butter and maple syrup is a big glass of ice cold milk. Am I the only one who has to have that with a crispy, still-warm-from-the-iron waffle?
Maybe it’s because that’s how I always had them when I was growing up. Maybe it’s the mix of the hot waffle with the cold milk. I don’t know why it is – I just know that’s how it has to be.
And even though my normal waffle topping of choice is usually pretty simple (butter, maple syrup, maybe some homemade jam), these cherry cheesecake waffles sure were a fun way to change it up a bit. The cherry topping adds some fruit and sweetness to the perfectly crisp sour cream waffle, and the cheesecake mix gives just enough tang to keep it from being too sweet.
But yeah, I know what you’re thinking.
Dessert? Sure! Breakfast? Of course. Lunch? Even better. These waffles can stand in for any meal you want.
