Beat together cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until smooth and creamy.
7. Frost and Serve:
Spread frosting over warm rolls. Serve immediately and enjoy every gooey, nutty bite!
Tips for Success
- Make ahead: Prepare the rolls the night before and refrigerate. In the morning, bring to room temperature and bake.
- Customize: Swap walnuts for pecans, or add raisins for a classic cinnamon bun twist.
- Extra gooey? Pour a little heavy cream over the rolls before baking for an extra tender texture.
