Breadmaking takes FOREVER! When I’m making something like cinnamon rolls, I like shortcuts. I started making Crescent Roll Cream Cheese Cinnamon Rolls. They taste amazing and much better than any canned cinnamon rolls, and they are so dang easy to make. You get to skip the whole making the dough and letting it rises a million times.

Roll up the dough the long way.
Cut into 1 1/2 inch segments.
Place the cinnamon roll segments into an 8 x 8 baking dish or an 8-9 inch cake pan.

While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the cream cheese frosting because you’ll want to put it on the rolls as soon as they come out of the oven.
Add the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a bowl and beat until well it’s whipped together.
As soon as the cinnamon rolls come out of the oven, liberally spread the cream cheese frosting all over them.
