Delight in these easy Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls with Heavy Cream, a quick and simple way to enjoy soft, fluffy cinnamon rolls with a rich buttery cinnamon topping. Using frozen Rhodes rolls, this recipe lets you prep ahead with an overnight rise option, then bake to golden perfection and finish with creamy frosting for the ultimate sweet breakfast treat.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 rolls

Ingredients

Cinnamon Rolls

  • 12 count Rhodes Frozen Rise & Thaw Cinnamon Rolls

Topping

  • ½ cup heavy cream at room temperature
  • 6 Tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Frosting

  • Provided cream cheese frosting packets (included with rolls)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Spray a 9×13-inch pan with non-stick spray and arrange the frozen cinnamon rolls in the pan at a slight angle, leaving approximately ½ inch between each roll.
  2. Cover and Rise: Spray a piece of plastic wrap with non-stick spray on one side to prevent sticking, then cover the pan with the sprayed side down. Let the rolls rise at room temperature for 3 to 5 hours or until nearly doubled in size. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for 8 to 16 hours for an overnight rise.
  3. Preheat Oven and Add Heavy Cream: Once risen, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Evenly pour the room temperature heavy cream over the surface of the rolls.
  4. Make and Pour Cinnamon Butter Topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, then whisk in the brown sugar and cinnamon until combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the rolls and use a spatula to spread it gently and evenly.
  5. Bake Rolls: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Frost and Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately frost with the cream cheese frosting packets included with the rolls. Serve warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • The rise time can vary depending on the temperature of your kitchen.
  • Rising the rolls overnight in the refrigerator is a convenient way to prep ahead.
  • Use the provided cream cheese frosting packets included with the Rhodes cinnamon rolls for authentic taste.
  • Ensure the heavy cream is at room temperature before pouring over the rolls to aid in even cooking.
  • For extra flavor, you can sprinkle additional cinnamon or nuts on top before baking if desired.
