You will love these soft, buttery cinnamon roll bites made quickly without yeast, using simple biscuit dough. They bake up perfectly gooey and are topped with a simple cream cheese glaze for a fast breakfast or dessert treat.

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
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking pan.
  2. Unroll the biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into four equal pieces. You should have about 24 pieces.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together. This is your cinnamon sugar coating.
  4. Dip each dough piece into the melted butter, coating it completely.
  5. Roll the butter-coated dough pieces in the cinnamon sugar mixture until they are fully covered.
  6. Arrange the coated dough pieces close together in the prepared baking pan.
  7. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. While the bites bake, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, softened cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add a tiny bit more milk if the glaze is too thick.
  9. Remove the baked bites from the oven. Let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
  10. Drizzle the cream cheese glaze generously over the warm cinnamon roll bites. Serve immediately for the best gooey texture.

Notes

  • For extra gooey centers, you can lightly press the dough pieces into the pan before baking.
  • If you prefer a thinner glaze, add milk one teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  • These sweet morning treats are best eaten the day they are made.
