    Delicious Cinnamon Rolls: A Quick and Easy Recipe

    Enjoy!!! This is small batch recipe for those who want a quick treat
    Prep Time 15 minutes
    Cook Time 15 minutes
    Total Time 30 minutes
    Servings: 6
    Course: Dessert
    Cuisine: American

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 can Pillsbury Buttermilk Southern Homestyle Biscuits
    Cinnamon Sugar Spread
    • 2 ½ tbsp brown sugar
    • ¼ cup butter room temp
    • Splash of vanilla extract
    • ½ tbsp cinnamon I just followed my gut, add more if you like it extra cinnamony!
    Cream Cheese Frosting
    • ¼ cup cream cheese
    • 1 tbsp heavy whipping cream
    • 2 tbsp brown sugar
    • Splash of vanilla

    Method
     

    1. For Cinnamon Spread: Mix everything together until the butter is soft and everything’s nicely combined.
    2. For Cream Cheese Frosting: Mix all ingredients until a smooth and creamy frosting forms. There should be no clumps!
    3. When assembling, I spread a layer of the cinnamon sugar inside the biscuit dough, then folded it hot dog style to seal it in. Place it seam side down, cinnamon sugar side up! Any extra mix will drip down and make a delicious sugary crust at the bottom. Bake the biscuits based on the instructions on the can!
