  2. Whisk together the remaining ingredients until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Pour the mixture evenly over the cinnamon roll cubes, pressing down slightly to make sure all the cubes are soaked.
  4. Let stand for a half hour to for the custard to fully absorb.

A couple of diced peeled apples added to the diced cinnamon rolls makes a nice apple cinnamon variation of this great comfort food dessert.
