How about if you laid them all out flat, brushed with melted butter, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon, and baked? Sort of like have-it-with-coffee snacks?

 

Butter on top of inverse puff pastry?  😲  Fantastic idea!

 

Thank you all for the ideas!  I am going to try rolling up into a log next time.

 

Meantime, I wanted to see what would happen if they were deep fried.  There was some deliberation into pan frying kind of like an english muffin, but, I was worried the insides might not cook.  My goodness, these things are ridiculous.  So light and tender, delicate crisp.  Cutting one open proved more challenging than expected, they just disintegrate.

 

Here's an idea: cut into small 1/4" pieces, then fried, they could be little poofs used as a topping on smooth desserts for a textural contrast.  Flavor is quite mild, which should be taken into consideration.
