Slice it into small rolls and place them in the waffle maker. As they cook, the waffled cinnamon rolls become golden and caramelized on the outside while staying soft on the inside. Add a generous dollop of cream cheese on top, and let it seep into the freshly removed, hot waffled rolls.

Cook until the batter has turned into golden brown waffles and is nice and crunchy.

Instead of covering the top with frosting too, place berries, chocolate chips and other delights in its squares.
