Ingredients
Scale
- 12 Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (Kept connected or separated)
- 4 large Eggs (Room temperature)

Instructions
- Slice the entire block of rolls in half horizontally to separate the tops from the bottoms.
- Mix the softened cream cheese and syrup in a bowl until the texture is light and fluffy.
- Spread the cream cheese over the bottom bread layer and press the top half back on firmly.
- Whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla, and spices in a flat dish until the custard is smooth.
