Serve it as is or with a scoop of creamy ice cream, chocolate cream, whipped cream or fresh berries if you want to get fancy!

Tips:

The casserole can be assembled the night before, covered with foil, and left in the refrigerator; in the morning, just bake and enjoy.
If the rolls don’t come with a glaze, mix 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon of milk and three tablespoons of warm cream cheese.
Be sure to wait until the casserole is warm. If you add the frosting to the hot bake, it will melt.
The casserole will keep in the refrigerator in a closed airtight container for up to 4 days. It can be served cold or heated in the microwave.
I do not recommend freezing the casserole.
