Banana Toffee Cinnamon Rolls

Banana Toffee Cinnamon Rolls

These easy cinnamon rolls are a great project to get the kids involved in baking.  I'm a firm believer if you want your children to enjoy cooking when they're grown you need to start the training young. To make these easy cinnamon rolls I always let my son help, because the ingredients are simple, and he loves to stir and taste. Well, mainly taste.  I really enjoy being in the kitchen with him anytime he's willing so, the tasting is always allowed and half the fun of cooking and creating goodies together.

Ingredients

• ⅓ cup brown sugar
• 3 tablespoon softened butter
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 1 8 oz can crescent rolls
• 1 medium banana
• ¼ cup English toffee chips
• Icing:
• ½ cup caramel prepared dulce de leche or caramel ice cream topping
• 2 oz cream cheese softened
• ½ teaspoon pure vanilla
• ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ cup toasted pecan pieces

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9" round baking dish or pie pan with cooking spray.
• In a small mixing bowl mix together the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon.
• Unroll the crescent rolls to form roughly a 13 x 9 inch rectangle. Press the perforations together and roll until smooth.
• Spread the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the crescent rolls from end to end.
• Cut the banana through the middle lengthwise, then cut into chunks. Arrange over the crust.
• Sprinkle the toffee chips over the bananas and begin to roll starting with the widest edge.
• Cut the roll into 12 one inch pieces.Arrange each piece in the baking dish, leaving even spaces between each roll.
• Bake for 18 minutes or until golden.
• Meanwhile, using an electric mixer, beat together caramel, cream cheese, vanilla and cinnamon until smooth. Set aside. [The topping pours more easily if heated in the microwave until the consistency of a thick syrup. Heat in 20 second increments and stir until thin enough to spread on top.]
• Remove from the oven and spread the caramel cream cheese icing on top while warm. Sprinkle with toasted pecans, if desired.

Notes

Dulce de Leche is a luscious thick caramel. It's readily available in most grocery stores in the Hispanic foods section. It often comes in a [13.4] oz can that looks much like sweetened condensed milk, but, it's very different, so, read carefully.

To toast pecans: Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Toast in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes.
