Instructions
Toast the Waffles Lightly
Toast all 8 frozen waffles in the toaster on the lowest setting just until defrosted and barely warm. They should not be fully crispy yet as they will cook more in the pan.
Assemble the Sandwiches
Place two cheese slices between two lightly toasted waffles to form a sandwich. Press gently together so the cheese sits flat inside the waffle pockets.
Pan Fry Until Melted
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the waffle sandwiches in the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side pressing down lightly with a spatula until the cheese melts and the waffles are golden and crispy.
Slice and Serve
Remove from the pan and let cool for 1 minute before cutting diagonally in half. Serve with maple syrup on the side for dipping to balance the savory cheese with a touch of sweetness.
