"When you get the craving for a sweet, sticky, warm, and delicious cinnamon roll there aren't a lot of other things that can satisfy it. If you want a cinnamon roll, you need a cinnamon roll. Sometimes baking feels like too much effort, especially on a lazy night at home when you just want to curl up with Netflix and a snack. Even canned cinnamon rolls take about half an hour to make."
"It can be a Pillsbury Grands roll, a store brand version, or whatever canned cinnamon rolls you have on hand. Pour a couple of tablespoons of heavy whipping cream around the edges of the roll and give it a quick swirl. In a separate bowl, melt a tablespoon of butter in the microwave and mix in cinnamon and sugar to make a glaze, then drizzle it over the top of the roll."
"The best mug for this little hack is slightly wider than the cinnamon roll itself. You don't want it too narrow, or you'll have to cram the roll in, but a very large mug can make it cook unevenly. If there is too much room, the roll may end up flatter, and the edges could dry out more than you want."
An individual cinnamon roll can be prepared in minutes by microwaving a single uncooked canned roll placed in a coffee mug with added liquid. Pour a couple tablespoons of heavy whipping cream around the roll so the dough soaks, then top with a melted butter mixed with cinnamon and sugar as a glaze. Microwave for about 90 seconds until the roll puffs and the liquid is mostly absorbed. Add the included icing if desired. Store separated uncooked leftover rolls under Press'n Seal in the refrigerator and use within roughly 24 hours. Use a mug slightly wider than the roll to ensure even cooking and avoid drying the edges.
