Ingredients

Dough and Toppings

  • 12 thawed frozen dinner roll dough balls
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 2–3 tablespoons canola oil

Cream Cheese Dip

  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Cut each thawed dinner roll dough ball into halves and roll each piece into a 6-inch long thin snake shape before twisting to form the cinnamon sugar twists.
  2. Brush with Oil: Lightly brush the twisted dough pieces with canola oil to help them crisp and develop a golden color while puffing.
  3. Let Dough Puff: Allow the brushed twists to rest and puff for about 15 minutes at room temperature to improve texture.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F to ensure an even and quick cooking process.
  5. Air Fry the Twists: Place the twists in the air fryer basket and cook them for 7 minutes. Flip each twist carefully and air fry for an additional 5 minutes or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
  6. Make the Cream Cheese Dip: In a bowl, whisk together cream cheese, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and milk until the mixture is smooth and creamy, perfect for dipping.
  7. Serve: Serve the warm, golden cinnamon sugar twists with the cream cheese dip on the side for dipping and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure the dough is fully thawed before shaping to prevent tearing.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar and cinnamon to your taste preference for sweetness and spice.
  • The cream cheese dip can be chilled slightly for thicker consistency or served immediately for a softer dip.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if needed for even cooking.
  • If you prefer, substitute canola oil with melted butter for a richer flavor.
