Basic Waffles with cheesecake topping

Another waffles recipe .. however this time it is sweet and with a cheesecake topping. A cheesecake topping .. I know it sounds strange! Last weekend, I wanted to try something different. I wanted to make something related to cheesecake (since my blog is named cheesecake for all). NOT a cheesecake, just the flavor of a cheesecake is added to my breakfast. While searching, I found this cheesecake topping recipe, which is made to be used with any basic waffles recipe.

In fact, I didn’t try any basic waffles recipe before. I used to buy the eggo waffles and enjoy eating them every day in the morining before going to work. Even after buying the waffles iron, I didn’t think of trying to make a basic waffles. I tried different and unique kind of waffles such as Chocolate Cinnamon Waffles and Three Cheese Waffles. But to make a basic waffles recipe and posted here wasn’t so attracting idea till I found this topping out there and decided to give it a try!

I couldn’t imagen that I would find a basic waffles recipe that will beat the eggo waffles I used to eat before. However, this recipe proved that I know nothing about how delicious waffles could be! I ate every piece with eagerness for more and more. I couldn’t stop until the plate became completely empty.

Each time I make the waffles I get very big pieces, this time I decided to make something different! I wanted to get meduim sized rounded waffles. Basicly I wanted my waffles to look and taste good as well. I poured the waffle‘s paste at the middle of the waffle iron without felling it with paste. The result was amazingly awesome, as expected , no much better than expected.

I got the size I wanted with a delicious taste more than eggo’s. You can use the waffles recipe with any kind of topping you want. It is up to you. However, the cheesecake topping is so good and can be done with different flavors as well. Here, I have used blueberry. Strawberry and blackberry can be added and used as well.
