Semi-Homemade Cinnamon Rolls
Cinnamon rolls made with crescent rolls
Ingredients
Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 package crescent rolls (8 pack)
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- ⅓ cup dark brown sugar (do not pack sugar)
- 1 ¼ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup cream, room temperature or slightly warm
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
Frosting
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cream
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Cinnamon Rolls
- Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon together.
- Unroll the crescent rolls and spread the butter evenly on each roll. Then sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture on each roll.
- Roll up the crescent rolls, starting with the flat end rather than the pointed end.
- Place the rolled-up crescent rolls into a 9 x 11-inch baking dish. Separate them to give them room for rising during baking. Mix the cream and vanilla together and pour the mixture around the cinnamon rolls. Do not pour it directly onto the rolls.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown.
Frosting
- Add the melted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, cream, and salt to a small bowl. Stir until well mixed.
- Spread frosting over the cooked cinnamon rolls.
