Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 17.5 oz packages Pillsbury cinnamon rolls 5 jumbo cinnamon rolls in each package
- 1 cup whipping cream
For the brown sugar mixture:
- 5 Tablespoons butter melted
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
For the Icing:
- 3 ounce cream cheese softened
- 2 Tablespoons salted butter softened
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- icing from cinnamon roll packages
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish. Remove cinnamon rolls from packaging and place in the pan. Pour whipping cream directly over cinnamon rolls and into the pan, filling the cracks and crevices.
- Pour the brown sugar mixture on top of each cinnamon roll, using a spoon to spread it around evenly. See photos above for a visual reference.
- Cover pan with foil and bake for 30-35 minutes (until they are cooked through) covered , then 5 minutes uncovered to brown the tops.
- While they bake, make the icing by beating together the softened cream cheese and butter on high until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add the vanilla and icing from the cinnamon roll packages and mix until combined. Add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth.
- Allow cinnamon rolls to cool for about 10 minutes then spread the icing over the top. This will allow the icing to soak into the cinnamon rolls a little bit, but not too much. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
TIPS:
- You may have to squish the cinnamon rolls a little bit to fit them all in the pan. This is okay, but if you have to squish them a lot, it's better to remove one or go up in pan size, so they have room to expand and fluff up.
- If you frost the cinnamon rolls immediately after removing from the oven, the icing will almost completely sink into the cinnamon rolls. I found the 8-15 minute time range allowed a little icing to sink in, but not all of it.
- These are best enjoyed warm! Reheat any leftovers in the microwave for best results.
- Store in an airtight container for 2-3 days. These can be frozen and stored for up to 2 months. We recommend storing the icing and cinnamon rolls separately. You can freeze them together, but the icing will absorb into the roll upon thawing.
- Make Ahead: This can be made up to 1 day before baking. Assemble, then store in the refrigerator. Allow to come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
