• 10 Oreo cookies (crumbled, plus more for topping)

Directions

Prepare Your Oven & Pan

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Lightly grease an 8-inch or 9-inch baking pan with nonstick spray.

Unroll & Fill the Cinnamon Rolls

• Open the Pillsbury Grands cinnamon rolls, setting the included icing aside for later.
• On a surface lined with parchment paper, carefully unroll each cinnamon roll into a strip, keeping the cinnamon filling facing up.
• Sprinkle the crumbled Oreo cookies evenly across the exposed cinnamon filling.
• Gently roll each strip back into its original spiral shape, ensuring the Oreo crumbles stay inside.

Arrange & Add Heavy Cream

• Place the filled cinnamon rolls into the prepared baking pan, spacing them slightly apart to allow for expansion.
• Pour ½ cup heavy cream evenly over and around the cinnamon rolls.

Bake Until Golden Brown

• Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
• Start checking for doneness at 20 minutes to prevent overbaking.

Make the Oreo Cream Cheese Icing

• While the rolls bake, combine softened cream cheese and the reserved Pillsbury icing in a small bowl.
• Stir until smooth and creamy.

Frost & Garnish

• Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
• Spread the cream cheese icing generously over the warm rolls.
• Sprinkle with additional crushed Oreos for an extra cookies and cream crunch.
