🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Begin by preparing the cinnamon roll dip. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy – about 2-3 minutes. Make sure there are no lumps!
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix at this stage, as it can make the dip too dense.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon. Mix until well combined. Taste and adjust the amount of cinnamon to your liking.
- In a separate small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon for the cinnamon swirl. Mix well.
- Gently fold the cinnamon-sugar mixture into the cream cheese mixture, creating a beautiful swirl pattern. Don't overmix – you want to maintain the distinct swirls.
- Now, let's make the cream cheese frosting. In a clean mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated. Increase the speed to medium and beat for another minute until the frosting is light and fluffy.
- Transfer the cream cheese frosting to a piping bag fitted with a decorative tip, or simply use a spoon to dollop it on top of the cinnamon roll dip.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the frosting.
- Cover the serving dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is optional, but I highly recommend it!
- Before serving, garnish with additional cinnamon, a drizzle of honey, or chopped pecans, if desired. Serve with your favorite dippers and enjoy!
📝 Notes
- For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular butter.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon-sugar mixture for extra warmth.
- Garnish with chopped pecans or a drizzle of honey before serving.
