Hawaiian Roll Cinnamon Rolls (Easy Shortcut Recipe)

Ingredients

• 1 package (12 count) of sweet Hawaiian rolls
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• 1/2 cup of brown sugar, packed tightly
• 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
• 1 cup of powdered sugar, sifted
• 2 tablespoons of cream cheese, softened
• 1 tablespoon of milk (more as needed for desired consistency)
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon to create your cinnamon roll filling. Mix well until evenly blended.
3. Take the Hawaiian rolls out of the package and carefully separate them, keeping them intact as a rectangular block.
4. Spread the softened butter generously over the top of the rolls.
5. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered rolls, pressing down slightly to adhere.
6. Slice the rolls into individual portions, about 1-2 inches thick, then arrange them in a greased baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and bubbly.
8. While the rolls are baking, whisk together the frosting ingredients until smooth, adjusting the milk as necessary for a creamy consistency.
9. Once the rolls are done, allow them to cool slightly before drizzling with the frosting.
