Equipment

Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 1 loaf King’s Hawaiian Bread Sweet, soft bread for the base.
  • 2 tbsp Butter Melted, for enriching the dough.

Filling Ingredients

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Softened for the filling.
  • ½ cup Sugar For the filling.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract Enhances flavor.
  • 1 cup Sugar For cinnamon sugar topping.
  • 2 tbsp Cinnamon For cinnamon sugar topping.

Frosting Ingredients

  • 4 oz Cream Cheese Softened for frosting.
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar For the frosting.
  • 1 tbsp Milk For smoothing the frosting.

Additional Ingredients

  • 2 large Eggs For binding the dough.
  • 1 cup Milk Adds moisture to the dough.
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder Leavening agent for the rolls.

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Next, take your King’s Hawaiian bread and slice it into small pieces. Place these pieces in a large mixing bowl.

Mix the Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, combine 8 oz of softened cream cheese, ½ cup of sugar, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. This will be your delightful filling.

Assemble the Rolls

  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the King’s Hawaiian bread pieces. Then, sprinkle a generous amount of cinnamon sugar (1 cup of sugar mixed with 2 tbsp of cinnamon) on top for that classic cinnamon roll flavor.

Roll It Up

  • Carefully roll the dough into a log shape. Make sure to roll tightly to keep the filling inside. Once rolled, slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces. You should have about 12 rolls.

Prepare for Baking

  • Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray. Place the sliced rolls in the dish, ensuring they are close but not touching. This allows them to rise beautifully.

Bake the Rolls

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!

Cool Slightly

  • Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes. This cooling time is essential for the frosting to adhere properly.

Frost the Rolls

  • While the rolls are cooling, prepare your frosting. Mix 4 oz of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of powdered sugar and a splash of milk until smooth. Spread this creamy frosting generously over the warm rolls.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Finally, serve your King’s Hawaiian Cream Cheese Cinnamon Rolls warm. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet treat any time of day!
