Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (500 g)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 g)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 cup whole milk (240 ml), warmed
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter (75 g), melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Filling
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter (150 g)
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (60 g)
- 2 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter (30 g)
- 1–2 tablespoons milk (15–30 ml)
Instructions
- Activate yeast: In a mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is active.
- Mix wet ingredients: Add the melted unsalted butter and eggs to the yeast mixture. Stir well until all wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Form dough: Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet mixture. Knead the combined ingredients either by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook until the dough is smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Prepare filling: In a small bowl, mix the Biscoff cookie butter with ground cinnamon until fully combined and smooth. This will be spread inside the dough.
- Roll dough: Once risen, punch down the dough to release gas. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread filling: Evenly spread the Biscoff and cinnamon filling over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges free.
- Shape rolls: Starting from one long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Use a sharp knife or dental floss to slice the log into 12 equal pieces. Arrange the rolls cut-side up in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each.
- Let rise again: Cover the rolls with a clean towel or plastic wrap, and allow them to rise for 30 to 45 minutes until puffy and nearly doubled.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25 to 30 minutes until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
- Make glaze: While the rolls bake, whisk together powdered sugar, Biscoff cookie butter, and milk in a small bowl until the glaze is smooth and pourable. Adjust the milk quantity for desired consistency.
- Glaze and serve: Remove the warm cinnamon rolls from the oven and drizzle the prepared glaze generously over the top. Serve warm for the best flavor experience.
Notes
- Use whole milk warmed to about 100-110°F to activate the yeast properly without killing it.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute butter and milk with plant-based alternatives.
- Ensure the rolls have enough time to rise for light, fluffy texture.
- Adjust glaze thickness by adding more milk to thin or more powdered sugar to thicken.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
