Directions

1. Step 1 Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a medium baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Step 2In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until slightly crispy, turning halfway through, about 5 minutes. Brush bacon generously with the maple syrup and let cook until the syrup thickens and glazes the bacon, about 30 seconds more.
3. Step 3Separate cinnamon rolls, then unroll each roll. Place 2 slices of bacon end to end on unrolled cinnamon rolls, then re-roll. Repeat until all cinnamon rolls are re-rolled and place in prepared baking dish. Bake until cinnamon rolls are golden and no longer doughy, 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Step 4Meanwhile, make frosting: In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and butter and beat until light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and beat until smooth. Gradually add milk to loosen icing, if needed.
5. Step 5Frost cinnamon rolls and serve warm.
