Vanilla Extract: A splash of vanilla enhances the overall flavor profile beautifully.
Milk: Use whole milk for extra creaminess or any milk alternative if you prefer.

Let’s Make it together
Prepare yourself for a pancake adventure that blends charm and indulgence!
Whip Up the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. You want it velvety enough to spread easily but firm enough to hold its shape.
Prepare Your Pancake Batter: Follow the instructions on your pancake mix box or create your batter from scratch using flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, milk, and eggs. Stir until just combined; lumps are okay—no one likes overmixed pancakes.
Cook Those Pancakes!: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Flip when bubbles form on top and edges appear set—about 2-3 minutes per side should do nicely.
Create Your Cheesecake Pancake Bowl: Stack two pancakes on a plate while they are still warm. Spoon a generous dollop of cream cheese filling right in the center between them—like putting frosting between cake layers but way better.
Add Toppings Galore!: Top your cheesecake pancake stack with fresh berries and drizzle syrup over everything like you’re an artist painting a masterpiece. Feel free to go wild with toppings—chocolate chips or whipped cream could join the party too.
Enjoy every last bite of these heavenly Cheesecake Pancake Bowls! The combination of fluffy pancakes and creamy filling makes breakfast unforgettable.
