Equipment

9x13 baking dish
Mixing Bowl

Oven
Aluminum foil if rolls brown too fast

Ingredients

2 cans Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls (with icing packets)
1 cup heavy cream
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup brown sugar
optional extra cream cheese frosting, for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour heavy cream into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Arrange the cinnamon rolls on top of the cream in the dish.
In a bowl, stir together the melted butter and brown sugar. Pour evenly over the rolls.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden and baked through. Cover loosely with foil if tops brown too quickly.
Spread the included icing over the warm rolls. For extra decadence, add cream cheese frosting if desired.

Notes

Substitute half-and-half or whole milk if you don’t have heavy cream. Cover with foil if rolls brown too quickly. For extra decadence, spread with cream cheese frosting after baking. Freezer-friendly too!
