There is this hack going around right now where you can use canned cinnamon rolls and take them to the next level. I LOVE cinnamon rolls, so I just had to try it! While not as good as my homemade, these are still way better than just the canned ones by themselves, especially if you like an ooey-gooey cinnamon roll. Enjoy!
Upgraded Canned Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients:
- 2 cans Pillsbury Grands cinnamon rolls, ~17 oz. each, 10 rolls total
- ~1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 3/4 cups brown sugar
- 1/2 Tbl cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Directions:
- Grease a 9x13 baking dish. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Place your rolls into your baking dish in an evenly spaced, single layer. Reserve the frosting that comes with the rolls for later.
- Pour your heavy cream around (not on top of) the rolls until it comes about halfway up the cinnamon rolls.
- Mix together your melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Pour this mixture evenly over the rolls.
- Bake for 40 minutes, or until the cream is absorbed, your rolls have enlarged and are puffy and starting to brown.
- Let cool, then top with the frosting from the cans.
Marsha's Notes:
You can also top these rolls with nuts, if desired.
