Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a pie or baking dish and pour the heavy cream into the bottom.
Cut the cinnamon rolls into quarters and spread them evenly over the cream, then spoon the apple pie filling on top.
In a bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon; stir until the mixture is crumbly and slightly wet, then sprinkle it evenly over the apples.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cinnamon rolls are cooked through.
Allow the pie to cool slightly, then drizzle with the icing from the cinnamon roll package.
Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
