Ingredients
Rolls
- 1 package Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
Filling
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
- 0.67 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- salt Pinch
Cream Cheese Frosting
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter softened
- 4 ounces plain cream cheese softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gently slice the top layer off your Hawaiian sweet rolls, making sure the bottom sheet stays intact and connected.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the ½ cup of softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and that tiny pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Spread about two-thirds of this delicious cinnamon-sugar filling evenly over the inside of the rolls, ensuring it reaches all the edges. Then, carefully place the top section of the rolls back into position.
- Drizzle or spread the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top of the rolls, giving them a lovely, golden glaze.
- Pop them into a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the tops are beautifully golden brown and the filling is bubbly and gooey.
- While your rolls are baking, it's time to whip up the dreamy frosting! In another bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of softened butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat until the frosting is smooth, light, and wonderfully creamy.
- Once the rolls are out of the oven and still warm, generously spread or drizzle the homemade frosting over them. Serve immediately for a truly delightful summer treat!
