Ingredients

  • 1 can Grands cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Festive holiday sprinkles optional, but highly recommended

Sugar Cookie Truffle Filling:

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 6 tbsp granulated sugar just under ½ cup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 7 oz sweetened condensed milk half a standard can

Instructions

Make the Sugar Cookie Truffle Filling:

  • In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and mix. Slowly add in the flour, salt, and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until a dough-like consistency forms. This is your sugar cookie truffle—yes, you’re already fancy.
  • Roll the truffles into little tiny, quarter size balls and set aside

Prep the Cinnamon Rolls:

  • Open the can of Grands cinnamon rolls and separate them. Gently unroll each one slightly, it’s okay if they break a little. Place small cookie truffle ball along the dough as you roll it back up, using about 3 balls per cinnamon roll. Once re-rolled, nestle each stuffed cinnamon roll into a buttered baking dish.

Heavy Cream Hack:

  • Pour 1 cup of heavy cream into the baking dish. This is what makes them triple in size and taste like they were proofed by angels.

Bake:

  • Cover your baking dish tightly with foil and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes. Don’t peek, trust the process.

Finish Strong:

  • Once out of the oven, top generously with the included cream cheese icing (and maybe some extra, let’s be honest). Add festive sprinkles to finish!
