Cinnamon roll cupcakes. These Easy Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes were so popular that they made an appearance twice within two weeks! These cupcakes start with a vanilla cupcake batter, and they are mixed with a brown sugar streusel, which is my favorite part. The frosting is a brown sugar, cinnamon frosting.
The fun part is the magical cinnamon brown sugar swirl that goes through the batter and adds that insane flavor you love about cinnamon rolls. While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the cream cheese frosting by using a hand mixer to whip together cream cheese, butter and vanilla extract in a bowl until light and fluffy. A buttery brown sugar and cinnamon mixture is swirled into a white cake and topped with a glaze in this recipe for Cinnabon® roll cake.
