What is the TikTok Cinnamon Rolls Hack?

The TikTok cinnamon rolls hack involves pouring milk over store-bought cinnamon rolls before baking them. That's it. Just add the heavy cream to the pan when you are ready to back them. 

Why Bake Cinnamon Rolls with Milk

Baking cinnamon rolls with milk helps keep them soft and moist, enhancing their texture and flavor. The milk adds richness and tenderness to the dough, resulting in more delicious cinnamon rolls. It's a simple hack that can elevate the taste and texture of store-bought cinnamon rolls.

What Can I Use Instead of Heavy Cream?

Instead of heavy cream, you can use alternatives like half-and-half, whole milk, or a combination of milk and butter for a similar richness in recipes. Cream cheese thinned with milk can also work for certain dishes, providing a tangy flavor.
