Cinnamon Rolls

Not really a recipe, but a alteration to store bought canned cinnamon rolls.

A common variant found on many recipes sites out there.

  • 1 can of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls (8 count)
  • ½ C heavy cream
  • ¼ C butter
  • ¼ C brown sugar
  • Vanilla extract
  • ½ block cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter

  1. Arrange the cinnamon rolls on a greased cake pan.
  2. Pour the heavy cream over the top of the unbaked cinnamon rolls
  3. Mix the butter, brown, sugar, and a splash of vanilla together, then pour this too, on top of the unbaked cinnamon rolls.
  4. Yes they are basically swimming in liquid as you put them into the oven.
  5. Bake according to the directions on the can. I think you should bake them a little longer, or on the upper end of the range. You want all the liquid to get nice and brown and gooey.
  6. While they are baking, prepare the icing.
  7. Put the existing icing that came with the rolls in a mixing bowl and add the cream cheese, 2 tbsp on butter, and another splash of vanilla. Wisk until combined
  8. Ice the cinnamon rolls after just a few minutes of cooling but while the rolls are still hot.

Enjoy!
