Make soft, gooey cinnamon roll bites quickly without yeast. This simple recipe uses pantry staples for a sweet treat perfect for brunch or a quick dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. Unroll the biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters. You should have about 24 small pieces.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the coating.
  4. Dip each biscuit piece into the melted butter, coating all sides lightly.
  5. Roll the buttered biscuit pieces in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully covered.
  6. Place the coated pieces close together in the prepared baking pan.
  7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. While the bites bake, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, softened cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add a few more drops of milk if the glaze is too thick.
  9. Remove the bites from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
  10. Drizzle the cream cheese glaze generously over the warm cinnamon roll bites before serving.

Notes

  • For extra gooey centers, pour 1/4 cup of heavy cream over the bites before baking.
  • You can use store-bought canned biscuit dough for this quick dessert hack.
  • Make the glaze ahead of time and keep it covered at room temperature until you are ready to drizzle.
