Servings: 10 Servings
Ingredients
Cinnamon Rolls:
- 10 jumbo-sized cinnamon rolls refrigerated, (We used two cans of Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls 5 count each.)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Glaze:
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 to 4 tablespoons milk adjust for desired thickness
Instructions
For the Cinnamon Rolls:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
- Place the cinnamon rolls into the prepared pan, and pour the heavy cream over the rolls. Allow the cinnamon rolls to rest for 5 minutes so the heavy cream can sink into the crevices.10 jumbo-sized cinnamon rolls, 1 cup heavy cream

- Bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown.
For the Glaze:
- While the cinnamon rolls bake, make the glaze. Whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla and 2 to 3 tablespoons of milk. Continue adding more milk until the glaze reaches the desired consistency.1 ½ cups powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
