Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
- 1 packet (2¼ tsp) instant yeast
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup warm milk (about 110°F / 43°C)
- ¼ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling
- ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter (melted slightly for spreading)
- ¼ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
Frosting
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 Tbsp Biscoff cookie butter
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Make the Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together warm milk, melted butter, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until the mixture is foamy, indicating the yeast is active.
- Add Egg, Vanilla, and Salt: Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and salt. Gradually incorporate the flour to form a dough.
- Knead the Dough: Knead by hand or with a mixer for 5–8 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, melted cookie butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until smooth and spreadable.
- Roll Out the Dough: Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a 12×16-inch rectangle on a floured surface.
- Spread Filling: Evenly spread the cookie butter mixture over the dough, leaving a small border around edges.
- Form Rolls: Roll the dough tightly from the long edge into a log.
- Slice Rolls: Cut the log into 12 equal rolls and place them into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Second Rise: Cover the dish and let the rolls rise for another 30–40 minutes until puffy and nearly doubled.
- Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake Rolls: Bake the rolls for 20–25 minutes until golden on top and soft in the center.
- Make Frosting: Beat together cream cheese, butter, cookie butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until fluffy and smooth.
- Frost Rolls: Spread the frosting generously over warm rolls so it slightly melts into the swirls.
- Optional Garnish: Drizzle extra melted Biscoff cookie butter on top and sprinkle cookie crumble for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Ensure the milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast without killing it.
- For easier spreading, slightly warm the Biscoff cookie butter filling.
- Use a sharp knife or dental floss to slice the rolls cleanly without squashing.
- If rolls brown too quickly, tent loosely with foil during baking.
- Store leftover rolls in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
