Ingredients

  • 4 bread rolls
  • 250g cream cheese
  • 250g butter
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 120g more cream cheese
  • 30g more melted butter
  • 80g icing sugar

That's because you don't have to make any dough! Who has time for dough these days? Not us! Simply use a tasty bread roll and cut some slits in it to fill with delicious cinnamon butter then bake and cover with icing sugar.

Method

  • Slice the bread rolls as shown in the video. Basically this is an opportunity to get lots of tasty butter in there. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Mix the butter, cinnamon and sugar together. Pop the cream cheese in a piping bag and pipe this into the slits in the buns, then top this with the butter and place the buns on a baking tray, Brush them with the melted butter and bake until crisp and golden, roughly 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Mix cream cheese, melted butter and icing sugar together, then whisk the milk in slowly until you have a mixture that falls off the whisk. Dip the cinnamon rolls into the icing and allow any excess to drip off.
  • What do you think of the recipe?
