    Ingredients

    • Cinnamon Rolls: Canned or homemade.
    • Heavy Cream: Heavy cream or heavy whipping cream.

    Instructions to Make Tiktok Cinnamon Rolls with Heavy Cream

    canned cinnamon rolls with heavy cream being poured on top.

    Preheat oven according to the instructions on canned Pillsbury cinnamon roll package (or other homemade or canned cinnamon rolls of choice). 400° F (or 375° F for a nonstick pan).

    Place cinnamon in a baking dish and pour the heavy cream over the cinnamon rolls (evenly coat each one).

    Bake Tiktok cinnamon rolls according to package instructions (approx. 13–17 minutes), until they are golden brown.

    Top with cinnamon roll icing or cream cheese cinnamon roll frosting. Enjoy!

    How to store leftover cinnamon rolls? 

    Leftover Tiktok cinnamon rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

    To reheat refrigerated cinnamon rolls, I like to pop them in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes (350°F).

    You can also microwave individual cinnamon rolls for about 30 seconds!

    Can I freeze leftover cinnamon rolls? 

    Yes, leftover cinnamon rolls can be frozen for up to 2 months. To freeze them, wrap the rolls tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a resealable plastic bag.

    To reheat frozen Tiktok cinnamon rolls, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight and microwave or bake them in the oven or air fryer (350°F) until they are heated through. 

    What can I serve with the cinnamon rolls? 

    How can I best enjoy these decadent delights, let me count the ways. Enjoy cinnamon rolls with a warm and toasty Cardamom Latte or cold brew with Pumpkin Cold Foam.

    I love a carbohydrate with another side of carbs so I say Air Fryer Hash Browns are also the way!

    FAQ and expert tips

    Can I use a different type of cream in the Tiktok cinnamon roll recipe? 

    You can use half-and-half or whole milk in this recipe but based on my recipe testing, heavy cream works best.

    Can I make the dough from scratch instead of using Pillsbury cinnamon rolls? 

    Absolutely! You can make homemade cinnamon rolls and use this same recipe for perfect results.

    Can I add any additional ingredients to the recipe? 

    Variety is the spice of life! Fun additional ingredients you can add are chopped nuts (pecans and walnuts are yummy), perhaps some chocolate chips or even a splash of bourbon mixed into the heavy cream!
