Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Cut each cinnamon roll into 9 pieces, and pull the pieces apart.
  3. Melt the butter in a large bowl and add the pieces of cinnamon roll to the bowl.

  5. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
  6. Add 12 pieces of the coated cinnamon rolls to each compartment in the muffin tin.

  9. Remove from the oven and transfer the cinnamon rolls to a large plate or serving tray.
  10. Heat the cream cheese frosting in the microwave for 20 seconds (in the container they came in, but without the metal lid).
  11. Use a spoon to drizzle the cream cheese frosting over the pull apart cinnamon rolls.

Notes

  • This recipe can easily be doubled for a large gathering, like Christmas or Thanksgiving. Simply click the 2X button above and the ingredient amounts will automatically update for the new serving size.
  • Make sure to pull apart the pieces of cinnamon rolls before tossing them with the butter, cinnamon and sugar, so that each side gets coated in the flavorful ingredients.
  • You can store pull apart cinnamon roll leftovers  in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat leftover cinnamon rolls, place them in an air fryer at 400°F for 3 minutes, or in the microwave for 30-60 seconds.
  • You can leave out the caramel bits, if you'd like, or replace them with 1/2 cup chocolate chips, small diced apples or butterscotch morsels.
