Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 count) refrigerated cinnamon rolls
- Cooking spray or butter for waffle iron
- For the Glaze: 2 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron. Spray the plates lightly with cooking spray or brush with melted butter.
- Open the can of cinnamon rolls. Do not unroll them. Place one whole cinnamon roll into the center of each section of the waffle iron.
- Close the lid and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and cooked through. Cooking time varies by waffle iron.
- While the waffles cook, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth.
- Carefully remove the hot waffles from the iron. Place them on a plate.
- Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the warm waffles immediately. Serve right away.
Notes
- If your cinnamon rolls are very large, you may need to press them down gently before closing the lid.
- For a thinner glaze, add milk one teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- This recipe works well for a quick weekend brunch waffle recipe.
