Cinnamon Roll Pancakes... 
Yes you can thank me later. 

Ingredients:
PANCAKES: 
(makes about 8-10)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 Tablespoon canola oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten
(or use the pancake recipe from Bisquick) 

CINNAMON FILLING::
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1-1 1/2 Tablespoon ground cinnamon

CREAM CHEESE GLAZE:

6 Tablespoons butter
2 ounces cream cheese
1 1/2  cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Prepare pancake batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
2. Whisk in milk, oil and egg, just until batter is moistened (will be a bit lumpy.. that's OK) .
3. In another medium bowl, mix butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. 
4.Pour filling into a pastry bag with a small tip .. should be about toothpaste consistency. 
5. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl- heat butter and cream cheese until melted, stir until smooth.
6.whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla extract; set aside. 
7. Heat large skillet over medium-low heat. Spray with nonstick spray. 
8.Scoop about 3/4 cup batter onto the skillet. When pancake has started to cook a little, swirl in the cinnamon filling. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more.
 9. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter and keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
10.  When ready to serve, spoon warmed glaze onto the top of each pancake.
