Apple Butter has always been one of my favorite treats. I will never forget the first time I tried it. That sweet “cinnamon-y” taste with apple, kind of like a jam. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Apple Butter on toast is still one of my favorite breakfast sides. Well here is a way to take Apple Butter to a whole new level. Apple Butter Cinnamon Rolls!! With cream cheese frosting.
