Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the melted butter and sugars until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat for 3-4 minutes until the batter almost reaches the ribbon stage.
½ cup (1 stick) salted butter, ¾ cup light brown sugar, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Pour the blondie batter into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes clean. Let cool completely in the pan.
To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and softened butter in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the confectioners' sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt and beat until smooth and creamy.
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 4 ounce (½ of an 8 ounce) package of cream cheese, ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, 3¼ cups confectioners' sugar, 1 Tablespoons heavy cream, ½ teaspoon salt
Spread the frosting over the cooled blondies and swirl them into a cinnamon roll shape. Slice into squares and serve.

Tips:

You can change the Cinnamon Roll Blondies recipe to suit your taste preferences. Remember that any changes you make to the recipe may affect the texture and structure of the blondies, so it's best to experiment in small batches first to see what works best for you.
Make sure your butter is melted when mixing it with the sugars. This will ensure you bake the most tender and chewy blondies.
