Ingredients

  • cinnamon rolls Pillsbury Grands Cinnabon, with icing, one 17.5-ounce tube
  • 2 ounces cream cheese softened (lite okay)
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk plus more as needed for desired consistency, or cream

Instructions

Pretzels:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350F, line a baking sheet with a Silpat or spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. Uncoil one Cinnabon roll and reshape into a pretzel (tutorial here), place on baking sheet, and repeat with remaining 4 rolls.
  3. Bake for about 13 to 14 minutes or until just set; don’t overbake. Pretzels firm up dramatically as they cool. Allow pretzels to cool on baking sheet.
  4. While pretzels bake, make the glaze.
Glaze:
  1. To a medium bowl, add the cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and beat with an electric handheld mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and combined. Add additional milk as necessary to achieve desired consistency.
  2. Drizzle glaze over pretzels and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Storage: Pretzels are best warm and fresh but will keep airtight for up to 4 days; reheat for 10 to 15 seconds in the microwave before serving.
  • You’ll have more glaze than you need as a drizzle so feel free to start dunking the pretzels in it. Extra glaze will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
  • Although there is glaze included in the tube of rolls, I prefer my homemade glaze.
