Description

Homemade cinnamon roll delight with creamy drizzle combines sweet spices and rich frosting for a classic comfort treat. Warm pastry and sweet glaze promise a delectable experience that welcomes you into kitchen bliss.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls (5 count)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup (200 g) light brown sugar
  • ½ cup (113 g) butter
  • 3 tbsps (45 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Oven Preparation: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), creating an ideal thermal environment for baking the delicate pastries.
  2. Dish Preparation: Thoroughly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent adherence and ensure effortless serving.
  3. Roll Arrangement: Carefully extract cinnamon rolls from packaging, positioning them evenly across the prepared baking surface to guarantee uniform cooking and consistent texture.
  4. Cream Infusion: Delicately pour heavy whipping cream around the arranged rolls, allowing the liquid to envelop and permeate the pastries, creating a luscious moisture barrier.
  5. Caramel Sauce Creation: Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, gradually incorporating brown sugar and stirring continuously until a smooth, glossy consistency develops.
  6. Sauce Refinement: Integrate heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture, maintaining constant motion to prevent scorching and ensure a harmonious blend.
  7. Liquid Distribution: Artfully drizzle the crafted sauce over the cinnamon rolls, ensuring comprehensive coverage and maximum flavor penetration throughout the baking dish.
  8. Baking Process: Slide the prepared dish into the preheated oven, allowing the rolls to bake for 25-30 minutes until achieving a rich golden-brown complexion and absorbing most of the surrounding liquid.
  9. Cooling and Finishing: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes, enabling optimal moisture absorption, then generously apply the included frosting and optionally drizzle remaining cream for an extra layer of indulgence.

Notes

  • Optimize Oven Placement: Position the baking dish in the center of the oven for even heat distribution and consistent golden-brown coloring.
  • Control Cream Consistency: Pour cream slowly and evenly around rolls to prevent oversaturation and ensure perfect moisture absorption.
  • Monitor Baking Time Carefully: Check rolls at 20-minute mark to prevent overcooking, as ovens can vary in temperature and performance.
  • Sauce Stirring Technique: Continuously whisk brown sugar sauce to prevent burning and achieve a smooth, silky texture without lumps.
