FAQs
Can I use homemade cinnamon rolls instead of canned?
Yes, homemade cinnamon rolls work great. Just make sure they are fully assembled and slightly chilled for easier wrapping with the cookie dough.
Will the cookie dough cook thoroughly around the cinnamon rolls?
Yes, baking at 350°F for about 15 minutes is usually enough to fully cook the cookie dough while warming the cinnamon rolls inside. Keep an eye on them so they don’t overbrown.
