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
For the Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking pan.
Open the can of biscuit dough. Separate the biscuits and cut each biscuit into four equal pieces. You will have about 20 pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the coating.
Dip each dough piece into the melted butter, coating it completely.
Roll the butter-coated dough pieces in the cinnamon sugar mixture until they are fully covered.
Place the coated dough pieces into the prepared baking pan, leaving a small space between them.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and cooked through.
While the bites cool slightly, prepare the glaze. Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Drizzle the sweet glaze over the warm cinnamon roll bites immediately after removing them from the oven.
Serve warm for the best gooey texture.
Notes
For extra gooey centers, pour 1/4 cup of heavy cream over the bites before baking.
You can use store-bought cream cheese frosting instead of making the simple glaze.
