King's Hawaiian Cinnamon Rolls are a quick and delightful twist on traditional cinnamon rolls, using sweet Hawaiian rolls topped with a gooey cinnamon-butter mixture and cream cheese icing.

Ingredients

1 package (12 oz) King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish and arrange the King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls in it, keeping their grid formation intact.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
  4. Spoon the cinnamon mixture evenly over the rolls.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and the sugar mixture is bubbling.
  6. Meanwhile, prepare the icing by mixing softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  7. Remove the rolls from the oven and drizzle the icing over them while they are still warm.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat individual rolls in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10-15 minutes.
  • Can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated overnight before baking.
  • To make the icing thinner, add a small amount of milk.
  • Use dairy-free alternatives for a lactose-free version.
