Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Blondies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar until well mixed. Add the eggs one at a time and stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Fold in the flour and salt until you have a thick blondie base.
  4. For the cinnamon swirl, mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until it resembles wet sand.
  5. Spread the blondie batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and drop spoonfuls of the cinnamon mixture on top, swirling it carefully.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes until edges are golden and a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Let them cool completely.
  7. Prepare the icing by beating cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until creamy.
  8. Drizzle the icing over cooled blondies, allow to set, and cut into squares for serving.
