- Place the heart shaped cinnamon rolls onto your prepared baking pan and bake cinnamon rolls for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once done baking, remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before icing.
- To make the cream cheese icing, mix together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.

If you want to dress these adorable heart shapes up, you can add a little food coloring to the icing to make pink or red hearts. You can even use several different colors like conversation hearts!
