Ingredients

  • 0.3 cup butter cut into pieces
  • 35 oz cinnamon bun dough refrigerated with icing canned
  • oz cream cheese 

Equipment

  • frying pan
  • oven
  • knife
  • cake form

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 350 F. Grease 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with shortening or cooking spray.
  2. Cut block of cream cheese into 24 equal-sized cubes. (Start by first halving block so that you have 2 thin pieces, and then cut each thin half into 12 equal squares.)
  3. Set aside icing from cinnamon rolls. Separate each can of dough into 5 rolls; unroll each roll, and cut each in half.
  4. Take a section of dough and fold it over so you have a rectangle shape that is 1 layer of dough thick.
  5. Place a square of cream cheese in the dough; fold over the dough, and gently crimp it around the cream cheese. Repeat with remaining dough pieces.
  6. Place cream cheese-filled dough balls in pan.
  7. Place butter pieces on top.
  8. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown across top. Cool 10 minutes; run knife around edge of pan to loosen.
  9. Place heatproof serving plate over pan and turn over; remove pan. Cool 10 minutes longer.
  10. Drizzle reserved icing over top of bread, allowing some to drizzle down side. Pull apart to serve; serve warm.
