Creating Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding is a joy when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Prepare Cinnamon Rolls: Cut the cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces and place them in the prepared baking dish.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.
4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the egg mixture over the cinnamon roll pieces, ensuring all pieces are soaked.
5. Add Optional Ingredients: If using, sprinkle the raisins and nuts over the top, gently folding them into the mixture.
6. Soak: Let the mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
9. Drizzle with Icing: If desired, drizzle the extra icing from the cinnamon rolls over the top before serving for added sweetness.

By following these steps, you will create a rich and satisfying Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding that is sure to impress!
