Why are the Cinnabon Frosting Pints a holiday must have food?

While many people would agree with the phrase that life needs more frosting, the reality is that sometimes a food shortcut is more than just a sweet hack. Of course, the Cinnabon Frosting is one of the reasons why those cinnamon rolls are so craveable, but the frosting isn’t limited to just one food recipe.

As Michael Alberici, Vice President of Marketing, Cinnabon, said “Our signature frosting is a versatile way to add sweetness during a season when people are craving it - whether it’s enhancing holiday recipes and treats, enjoying it as a treat on its own, gifting it to friends and family or adding a little extra to top off your Cinnabon cinnamon rolls.”

For this holiday season, Cinnabon is sharing various frosting recipe hacks to enjoy ever last spoonful of that sweet deliciousness. From using the frosting as a garnish on a cocktail glass to making cookie sandwiches, many recipe ideas are simple and easy.

Beyond the traditional uses of a frosting, Cinnabon has a few out of the box ideas. As many foodies appreciate, a combination of savory and sweet always satisfies. These two recipes might be the hit of the holiday season.

For that Sunday brunch, the Savory & Extra Sweet Breakfast Sandwich is a delightful option. Basically, the recipe calls for scrambled eggs and bacon to be served on a roll, preferably a ciabatta roll. The frosting is used as a sandwich spread. This recipe offers that perfect balance of salty and sweet.

Another option is Grilled Strawberry, Brie, and Cream Cheese Sandwich. This elevated version of a grilled cheese could also be used as a replacement for a baked brie. While the recipe calls for the balsamic vinegar as an option, it makes all the other flavors pop. It shouldn’t be left off.

Also, be thoughtful on the bread choice. From a hearty country load to even a sourdough, the bread is an important component to this recipe.

Here’s how to make Grilled Strawberry, Brie and Cream Cheese Sandwich.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Bread slices of choice
  • Scoop of Strawberry Jam
  • 4 small slices of Brie cheese
  • Scoop of Cinnabon’s Signature Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 1 small scoop of butter or margarine
  • Balsamic glaze (optional)

Method:

  • Spread frosting and strawberry jam on both slices of bread.
  • Add 4 small slices of Brie cheese to bread and then sandwich bread together.
  • Throw scoop of butter in pan and toast sandwich.
  • Top off sandwich with balsamic glaze (optional). Enjoy!

These ideas are just a few of the many recipes for the Cinnabon Frosting Pints. From breakfast to dinner to just sneaking a spoonful when no one is looking, Cinnabon and the holiday season are always a festive combination.
