Ingredients

• ½ cup powdered sugar

• 1–2 tbsp milk or cream

• ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Slice the entire pack of Hawaiian rolls horizontally (like a sandwich) without separating them.
• Mix melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt in a bowl.
• Spread the cinnamon-sugar butter mixture generously over the bottom half of the rolls.
• Replace the top half, then drizzle any remaining mixture over the top.
• Bake in a greased baking dish for 10–12 minutes, or until warm and gooey.
• While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to make glaze.
• Drizzle glaze over warm rolls. Serve immediately!

Notes

• Best served warm — microwave leftovers for 10–15 seconds to revive the gooeyness.
• Add chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.
• Try using flavored cream cheese in the glaze for a tangy twist.
