Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, add a dash of nutmeg to the cream cheese mixture.

Let the casserole sit for a few minutes before slicing to help hold its shape.

🔧 Troubleshooting Tips

If the casserole doesn't rise, check that your cinnamon rolls are fresh and not expired.
If the icing is too thick, add a little more heavy cream to achieve the desired consistency.

Add chocolate chips for a gooey surprise.
Incorporate fruit like banana or apple for a twist.
