*Place frozen Rhodes rolls on a sheet tray lined with a silicone baking mat. Alternately grease pan with cooking spray. Cover the frozen rolls with sprayed plastic wrap. THAW at room temperature for 1-2 hours or in the refrigerator overnight. They should be thawed, but still cold enough to easily handle them.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Roll each ball of dough into a 14-inch rope. Then roll each end in opposite directions 3 or 4 times. Pick up the ends and pinch them together. The dough will twist automatically.
Melt butter in a deep plate/dish. Combine cinnamon and sugars in another deep plate/dish.
Dip twists in butter, then in the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Place coated twists a couple inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Cover the twists with sprayed plastic wrap and let dough rest for 15-20 minutes until risen slightly.
Bake cinnamon twists at 350˚F for 15-20 minutes until baked through. (Internal temperature of 190-200˚F.) May brown only on bottom.
CREAM CHEESE DIP: With an electric hand mixer, beat cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Mix together. Serve as a dip or drizzle over the top of twists.
Notes
Best eaten immediately. Store leftover cinnamon twists in an airtight container or zip-top bag up to 3-4 days. (NOTE: The cinnamon sugar does dissolve slightly while storing and makes the bread sticky.)
Store the cream cheese dip separately in the refrigerator.
Nuke leftover cinnamon twists in the microwave for 10-20 seconds.
