Notes

Recipe Tips.

Cut evenly. When slicing the cinnamon rolls, try to make each piece similar in size so they bake evenly and puff up nicely.
Crunchy topping. Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts before baking for extra texture and flavor.
Extra Icing. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, add ¼ cup milk, 3 tablespoons butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla, and whisk until smooth and creamy. Remove from the heat and our over-warmed casserole.

Prep ahead. Assemble the casserole the night before, cover it tightly, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, just bake it fresh and enjoy a warm, gooey breakfast with no morning prep.

Store. Cover the baked casserole with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or wrap it with plastic and foil, and freeze it for up to 2 months.

Reheat. Thaw if needed. Cover the pan with foil and warm it in a 325°F oven for about 15–20 minutes, or until heated through and gooey again. For individual slices, place on a microwave-safe plate and heat for 20–30 seconds.
