Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated cinnamon rolls with strawberry and cream icing
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 can (21 ounces) strawberry pie filling
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Open the cinnamon rolls and set aside the icing packet for later use.
- Cut each cinnamon roll into 6 equal pieces and place them in a large bowl.
- In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Stir half of the strawberry pie filling into the cream cheese mixture.
- Add the cinnamon roll pieces and gently stir until evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Spoon the remaining strawberry pie filling over the top.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the casserole is golden brown and fully cooked in the center.
- Allow the casserole to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Drizzle the reserved strawberry icing over the warm casserole before serving.
Notes
- Blueberry, cherry, raspberry, or apple pie filling can replace strawberry pie filling.
- Fresh sliced strawberries add extra flavor and texture.
- Chopped pecans or walnuts create a crunchy topping.
- Classic cream cheese cinnamon rolls work if strawberry rolls are unavailable.
- White chocolate drizzle adds a bakery-style finish.
- The casserole can be assembled the night before and baked the next morning.
- Reheat leftovers gently to maintain a soft texture.
