I used a boxed pancake mix {Bisquick} as the base for this recipe, because it is so handy to have around the house as a staple ingredient, right? You can use your own favorite brand if you have a favorite!  

Ingredients You Need 

Pancakes 

• BisQuick
• milk
• egg

Cinnamon Filling

• butter 
• brown sugar
• cinnamon

Cream Cheese Glaze

• butter 
• cream cheese
• vanilla extract

How to Make Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

1. Combine melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
2. Mix well and set aside to thicken (it should be about as thick as toothpaste before using).
3. Combine softened butter, cream cheese until well mixed, then add in powdered sugar and vanilla extract and mix well; set aside.
4. Prepare pancake batter by mixing BisQuick, milk and one egg in a small bowl.
5. Heat a large pan over medium heat.
6. Pour brown sugar filling mixture into a zip lock bag and snip off a small piece in one bottom corner. Pour ⅓ cup pancake batter into the heated pan to form pancakes and cook until the edges begin to start to look dry and there are bubbles in the center.
7. Starting in the center of the pancake, squeeze the filling into a spiral on the top of the pancakes (stop within about 1 inch of the edge)
8. Flip the pancakes and cook until the bottom is golden. (Don't panic, the filling will spill out and be a little messy, but it will be fine).
9. Place cream cheese glaze in microwave oven and heat up about one minute and drizzle on top of the pancakes. (I like warmed syrup so this is kind of the same effect) Enjoy!
