My family devoured them in minutes!Remember those soft Hawaiian sweet rolls you love? We’re taking them to a whole new level here. Imagine the golden crust, the soft interior, and then BAM – a ribbon of tangy, sweet cream cheese mingling with warm cinnamon and sugar. It’s pure bliss.
Here’s how to make these magical swirls:
**You’ll Need:**
-
12 Hawaiian sweet rolls
-
* ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
-
* 8 oz cream cheese, softened
-
* ½ cup granulated sugar
-
* 1 large egg
-
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
**Let’s Make Some Magic:**
-
Slice each Hawaiian sweet roll horizontally, keeping the top and bottom halves together.
-
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until super smooth and creamy.
-
3. Gently spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto the bottom half of each sweet roll. Place the top half back on to close the roll.
-
4. Brush the tops of the assembled rolls with the melted butter.
-
5. In another small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the buttered tops of the rolls.
-
6. Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish.
-
7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cream cheese filling is set.
-
8. Let them cool slightly before diving in. The smell alone will make your kitchen feel like the coziest place on earth!
