Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding
 
Makes 8 to 10 servings
Ingredients
  • (12.4-ounce) cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing*
  • 1½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1½ cups half-and-half
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • ½ (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 8 egg yolks
  • Brown Sugar Streusel (recipe follows)
Instructions
  1. Bake cinnamon rolls according to package directions. Remove from oven, and let cool. Do not ice rolls; refrigerate icing.
  2. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Poke holes in rolls with a wooden skewer at ½-inch intervals. Place rolls upright on sides in three rows in prepared pan.
  3. In a large saucepan, cook cream, half-and-half, sugar, cream cheese, and cinnamon over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, just until bubbles begin to form around sides of pan. Remove from heat, and whisk in vanilla.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and egg yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly add 2 cups hot cream mixture to eggs. Whisk egg mixture into remaining cream mixture in saucepan. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding solids. Slowly pour egg mixture all over rolls. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°. Uncover and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with Brown Sugar Streusel. Cover with foil.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more.
  7. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat reserved cinnamon roll icing on high until slightly melted, 10 to 15 seconds. Drizzle icing onto casserole. Serve immediately.
