INGREDIENTS
Cooking spray, for baking dish

10 slices bacon

2 tbsp. maple syrup

1 (17.5 oz) can refrigerated cinnamon rolls

3 oz. cream cheese, softened

1/4 c. butter, softened

3/4 c. powdered sugar

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

2 tbsp. milk

DIRECTIONS
1 Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a medium baking dish with cooking spray. 

2 In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until slightly crispy, turning
halfway through, about 5 minutes. Brush bacon generously with the maple
syrup and let cook until the syrup thickens and glazes the bacon, about 30
seconds more. 
 3 Separate cinnamon rolls, then unroll each roll. Place 2 slices of bacon end to
end on unrolled cinnamon rolls, then re-roll. Repeat until all cinnamon rolls are
re-rolled and place in prepared baking dish. Bake until cinnamon rolls are
golden and no longer doughy, 25 to 30 minutes.

4 Meanwhile, make frosting: In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and

butter and beat until light and uffy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and beat
until smooth. Gradually add milk to loosen icing, if needed.

5 Frost cinnamon rolls and serve warm.
