Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease 12-cup fluted bundt pan with nonstick spray.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Open the cans of cinnamon rolls. Cut each roll in half, then flatten each piece into a circle with your fingers. Place a piece of cream cheese in the center of the dough round. Fold the dough over the cream cheese to seal and roll into a ball. Toss in the cinnamon sugar. Place in the prepared bundt pan. Repeat with remaining dough pieces.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and melted butter until smooth. Pour the mixture over the filled cinnamon roll balls.
- Bake the monkey bread for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, until cool to the touch, then invert onto a serving platter.
- Add the frosting from the cans of cinnamon rolls into a small microwave-safe bowl. Warm in the microwave for 30 seconds to loosen.
- Drizzle the icing over the monkey bread. Serve warm.
- Enjoy!
