Ingredients
- 12 whole Hawaiian sweet rolls Split horizontally
- 1/4 cup Unsalted butter Melted
- 8 oz Cream cheese Softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup Powdered sugar Sifted if lumpy
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line with parchment for easier cleanup.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and lump-free.
- Carefully cut the Hawaiian sweet rolls in half horizontally.
- Spread melted butter on the cut sides of both the top and bottom halves.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom half of the rolls.
- In a small bowl, combine the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the cream cheese layer.
- Place the top half of the rolls back on and gently press down to compact the filling slightly.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the filling is warmed through.
