How

Preheat
oven to 300°. Combine the first 5 ingredients and, if desired, rainbow
sprinkles. In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, yogurt and extracts. Add yogurt
mixture to flour mixture; mix until smooth.
Preheat
waffle maker coated with cooking spray. Bake waffles according to
manufacturer’s directions until golden brown. Transfer cooked waffles to oven
until ready to serve.
For
frosting, beat cream cheese and butter on high until light and fluffy, 2-3
minutes. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, until
smooth. Beat in vanilla. Add enough milk to reach desired consistency. Spread
over warm waffles. For a cakelike look, cut waffles into fourths and stack
them; decorate with birthday candles.
