Made with a shortcut using Jiffy baking mix, these rolls are quick to make and perfect for breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Jiffy baking mix
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a baking dish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine Jiffy baking mix and milk. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it a few times to form a smooth ball.
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Brush melted butter over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the melted butter, followed by the ground cinnamon.
  7. Starting from one long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log.
  8. Cut the log into 1 1/2-inch thick slices and place them in the greased baking dish, cut side up.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  10. While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, cream cheese, vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency.
  11. Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
  12. Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls and serve immediately.
