Ingredients:

  • 1 sheet (250g) pre-rolled puff pastry, chilled
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1.5 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 2 oz (60g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 tbsp whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll your chilled 250g puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface.
  3. Brush the 2 tbsp melted butter over the entire surface, leaving a 1/2 inch border at the top edge.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 1.5 tbsp ground cinnamon, and sea salt. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered area until the pastry is fully coated.
  5. Starting from the long edge closest to you, roll the pastry into a tight log. Keep the tension even to avoid air gaps.
  6. Cut the log into 8 equal pieces using dental floss or a sharp knife.
  7. Place rolls on the prepared pan, spaced at least 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 20 minutes until golden and crackling.
  9. While baking, whisk the 2 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 tbsp milk, and vanilla until silky and smooth.
  10. Let the rolls cool for 5 minutes before drizzling with the glaze.
