Red Velvet Love Letters

Red Velvet Belgian Waffles with Cheesecake Filling & Berries 💕✨

Making these was SO much fun—and they’re perfect for a sassy Valentine’s Day breakfast! Here’s how I did it:

For the Waffles

• 🥞 Mix your fave pancake batter.

• 🎂 Add about 1 cup of boxed red velvet cake mix (trust me, this combo slaps).

• 💃 Spoon regular pancake batter AND red velvet batter into the waffle iron, swirling for that pretty marbled look.

• 🔥 Cook like normal (your kitchen will smell heavenly).

For the Cheesecake Filling

• 🧀 Beat 8 oz of softened cream cheese.

• 🍋 Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 3 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 2 tbsp leftover Greek yogurt.

• 🍍 I tossed in a splash of my leftover pineapple-ginger simple syrup because, why not?

💡 Fun Tip: Spoon the filling into a Ziploc bag, cut the corner, and voilà—fancy piping bag for layering cheesecake goodness!

Assembly

• 🥪 Layer the waffles with cheesecake filling and fresh-sliced berries.

• 🍫 Top with whipped cream, powdered sugar, chocolate or caramel sauce, a sprig of mint, or all of the above—because, why not be extra?

✨ 🩷For Valentine’s Day, I’m making these in a heart-shaped waffle iron. How cute is that?!🩷🥺#valentinesdayrecipe #recipesforvalentinesday #valentinesdaytreats #valentinesbrunch #redvelvetwaffles
