Method
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, white sugar, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the warm milk, 1/3 cup of melted butter, eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Add the wet milk mixture to the dry flour mixture. Stir until the batter is lumpy and just moistened. Do not overmix.
- Ladle the batter into the preheated waffle iron. Cook in batches if needed until the waffles are golden brown and the iron stops steaming, which takes about 5 minutes per waffle.
- To make the cinnamon topping, stir together the brown sugar, 1/2 cup of melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- To make the cream cheese topping, beat the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, 1/4 cup of softened butter, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt together in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Place the cooked waffles on a plate. Drizzle both the cinnamon mixture and the cream cheese mixture over the top before serving.
