I’ve been experimenting with dessert recipes for a while now and stumbled upon something pretty wild – TikTok Cinnamon Rolls with heavy cream that totally flipped my breakfast game. Imagine taking 2 cans of Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls with icing and soaking them in 2 cups of heavy whipping cream.

I know it sounds odd, but trust me when I say it works. I drizzle 1 stick of melted unsalted butter (about 1/2 cup) on top, then sprinkle 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar over the whole thing.

The combination of these ingredients creates some viral, tick tock style treats that are surprisingly indulgent yet super easy to whip up. This is one of those viral breakfast sweets that feels like a secret recipe passed along for generations.

If you’re looking for something different for breakfast or as a treat, give this a try and let me know what you think.

Why I Like this Recipe

I really love these viral TikTok cinnamon rolls because they are super easy to make, they taste amazing, and they bring back a warm, homey feel to my day. I always get excited about how the heavy whipping cream soaks right into the rolls, making them incredibly moist. Plus, the sweet, buttery brown sugar topping mixed with the icing gives it that perfect blend of rich and sugary flavors that I absolutely crave.

I stumbled on this recipe and thought it was genius. You take two cans of Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls (icing included) and place the rolls in a baking dish. Then you pour 2 cups of heavy whipping cream over them so each roll gets drenched in that rich taste. After about 5 minutes of letting them soak in the cream, you bake them at 350°F for around 18 to 20 minutes until they’re all puffed up and golden.

Meanwhile, you melt a stick of unsalted butter (about 1/2 cup) and mix in 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar. Once the cinnamon rolls are out of the oven, you immediately drizzle this gooey, sweet mixture on top, and then finish it off with a generous drizzle of the included icing. The result is a warm, decadent treat that feels indulgent and comforting at the same time. I love how the recipe takes something as simple as canned cinnamon rolls and turns it into a showstopping dessert with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Ingredients photo for TikTok Cinnamon Rolls (with Heavy Cream!) Recipe

  • Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls are rich in carbohydrates; they deliver a soft, sweet indulgence with few fibers.
  • Heavy whipping cream adds a luxurious richness and smooth texture while contributing healthy fats in moderation.
  • Unsalted butter boosts flavor and moisture; its melted form blends perfectly for a tender, buttery base.
  • Light brown sugar sweetens naturally and provides quick energy, enhancing the caramel-like notes in each bite.

Ingredient Quantities

  • 2 cans Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls (with icing)
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

How to Make this

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a baking dish large enough to fit both cans of cinnamon rolls.

2. Open the cans and arrange the cinnamon rolls evenly in the dish, leaving a little space between them so they can soak up all the cream.

3. Pour the heavy whipping cream slowly over the cinnamon rolls, making sure every roll gets a generous amount.

4. Let the cinnamon rolls sit in the cream for about 5 minutes so they really absorb all that rich flavor.

5. Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed up and look golden.

6. While the rolls are baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small bowl.

7. Stir the brown sugar into the melted butter until well mixed, creating a sweet, sticky topping.

8. When the cinnamon rolls are done, take the dish out of the oven and immediately drizzle the butter and brown sugar mixture evenly over the warm rolls.

9. Finally, drizzle the included icing from the can over the top and serve while hot. Enjoy these amazingly easy, viral TikTok cinnamon rolls!

Equipment Needed

1. Preheated oven ­– you’ll need one to bake the cinnamon rolls.
2. A baking dish big enough to hold both cans of cinnamon rolls.
3. A can opener if your rolls aren’t already opened.
4. A measuring cup for the heavy whipping cream.
5. A small bowl to melt and mix the unsalted butter with the brown sugar.
6. A spoon to stir the butter and brown sugar together.
7. Oven mitts to safely remove the hot baking dish from the oven.
8. A brush or paper towel to lightly grease the baking dish.

FAQ

Answer: Yes, you can swap heavy whipping cream with half and half if needed, but the rolls might not be as rich.

Answer: No, the Pillsbury cinnamon roll dough is premade so you just follow the baking instructions and add the extra cream and butter mixture.

Answer: Absolutely, you can bake the rolls ahead of time and then reheat them in the oven or microwave when you are ready to enjoy.

Answer: Sure, if you're not into super sweet icing you can drizzle less over the rolls or mix a bit of cream cheese in it to tone down the sweetness.

Answer: The best way is to reheat in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes. This reafirms the flavors and texture better than the microwave.

TikTok Cinnamon Rolls (with Heavy Cream!) Recipe Substitutions and Variations

  • If you can’t find Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls, you can use any refrigerated cinnamon roll dough available at your grocery store or try making your own using a basic dough recipe.
  • If you need a substitute for heavy whipping cream, full-fat coconut cream works pretty well if you’re after something a little different or even heavy cream from the dairy section.
  • If unsalted butter isn’t available then try using salted butter but remember to cut down on any extra salt in the recipe or you can use coconut oil if you want a slight twist in flavor.
  • If you run out of light brown sugar, dark brown sugar can be used as a replacement or you can mix granulated sugar with a splash of molasses to get that similar deep flavor.

Pro Tips

1. Try letting the rolls sit in the cream a bit longer if you can, so they really pump up that rich flavor; sometimes 7 to 8 minutes can make a big difference, especially if you like your rolls extra moist.
2. Don’t overbake ’em! Check at the 18-minute mark to see if they’re just puffed and golden, cause if they go too long, they might get a bit dry and that syrupy topping won’t soak in as well.
3. When you mix the butter and brown sugar, give it a good whisk until it’s really smooth; this way, you get that perfect sweet drizzle on every roll without any clumps.
4. For an extra special twist, try warming the icing just a tad before drizzling it on top; a little heat can help it spread more evenly.
