The cream cheese just needs to be melted enough so that it's easy to spread/drizzle over the cinnamon rolls. It doesn't need to be too runny - 20 seconds in the microwave is more than enough.
Another option instead of the yellow cake mix is to use cinnamon swirl cake mix or muffin mix, however it's not always as easily accessible for everyone depending on the grocery store so that's why I like to use a common yelllow cake mix and then just add cinnamon sugar. If you're using cinnamon swirl cake mix, you can omit the cinnamon and brown sugar and use the packet that comes with the box cake mix.
Avoid overbaking the cake as the cinnamon rolls will become dry.
Best served warm.
