Description

Delicious and festive Halloween-themed cinnamon rolls, topped with cream cheese frosting and decorated with candy eyes and sprinkles.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (5 count) cans refrigerated grands cinnamon rolls
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 4 Tbsp butter, melted
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 2 icings from pre-made cinnamon rolls
  • 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 Tbsp butter, softened
  • Orange food coloring, as needed
  • Candy eyes
  • Halloween sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Place the refrigerated Grands cinnamon rolls into the prepared baking dish, spacing them evenly.
  3. Pour 1 cup of heavy whipping cream evenly over the cinnamon rolls, making sure to pour some cream between each roll to keep them moist.
  4. In a small bowl, melt 4 tablespoons of butter, then mix in ⅓ cup brown sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon until well combined.
  5. Drizzle the cinnamon-sugar butter mixture evenly over the cinnamon rolls in the baking dish.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until the rolls are cooked through and bubbly.
  7. Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine 4 tablespoons softened butter and 4 ounces room temperature cream cheese. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  9. Stir in the two containers of pre-made cinnamon roll icing followed by 1 cup powdered sugar. Whisk until creamy and well incorporated.
  10. Add a few drops of orange food coloring to the frosting, mixing until the color is evenly distributed. Add more drops until you achieve your desired Halloween orange shade.
  11. Spread the orange cream cheese frosting over the completely cooled cinnamon rolls evenly.
  12. Top the frosted rolls with candy eyes and Halloween sprinkles for a fun and spooky finish.
  13. Serve immediately and enjoy your festive Halloween cinnamon rolls!

Notes

  • Ensure rolls are completely cooled before frosting to avoid melting the frosting.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of orange food coloring based on your preference.
  • These cinnamon rolls are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
