You have to try these outrageous S’mores Cinnamon Rolls with Marshmallow Cream Cheese Frosting – out of this world people!
These cinnamon rolls are the brain-child of Bryce. When I asked him what s’mores recipes he wanted me to make – S’mores Cinnamon Rolls were at the top of his list.
He is such a smartie 🙂
It took me a little while to figure out how I wanted to make them so that I could include all the proper s’mores elements: graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate.
These rolls turned out even better than I expected and were devoured by the boys and my husband. (I even got a text from my husband who told me how amazing these were!)
I started with my favorite cinnamon roll recipe which, by the way, can be made overnight. I slathered on Nutella {swoon!}, and mixed graham cracker crumbs right in with the sugar and cinnamon.
Next were the marshmallows and a drizzle of butter. Yep, these are super low-cal 😉 But worth it – I promise you!
I let the rolls rise and the boys were just giddy with excitement at seeing those marshmallows peeking out the top. Who can blame them?
The marshmallows toasted up so pretty in the oven too!
Next, it was time to frost. I knew my go-to cream cheese frosting was not going to cut it. Not for s’mores cinnamon rolls. No, I needed a marshmallow frosting and this outrageously awesome marshmallow cream cheese frosting was born. So creamy and delicious and not overly sweet – which is perfect because these rolls have a lot going on.
I quickly realized that the marshmallow frosting needed some friends so a quick sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs and mini chocolate chips was the perfect finish to these rolls.
My only regret is that I didn’t double the batch. They are really THAT good.
Every bite is packed full of s’mores flavor and the rolls themselves are so tender and sweet – the perfect way to celebrate s’mores week!
There’s just a whole lot of love in these rolls!
