Observations

NOTES:
Any refrigerated or frozen cinnamon rolls will work. Simply defrost the frozen ones enough to cut them prior to starting the recipe.
Half and half or whole milk can be substituted for the cream.
Gently push the quartered cinnamon rolls into the egg mixture so that they are all coated.
To prepare this the night before simply prep everything up to and including pouring the egg mixture over the cinnamon rolls. Then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake. Remove from the refrigerator 30-40 minutes prior to baking to bring up to room temperature. Pour maple syrup over the casserole and then bake in the oven.
