Delicious Oreo cinnamon rolls topped with creamy frosting, perfect for a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup whole milk (warmed)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1–2 tbsp milk (to adjust consistency)
Instructions
- Warm the whole milk until lukewarm and activate the active dry yeast by stirring it into the milk.
- In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and the yeast-milk mixture.
- Add melted unsalted butter and eggs, mixing everything until a sticky dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it thoroughly until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1 hours until it doubles in size.
- In a bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar, mixing well to create the sweet and flavorful filling.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle approximately 16 by 12 inches.
- Evenly spread the Oreo cinnamon filling over the surface of the dough, pressing lightly to help it adhere.
- Starting from the longer side, tightly roll the dough into a log.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 equal slices approximately 1 to 1 inches thick.
- Arrange the slices in a greased baking pan, leaving a little space between each.
- Cover and let the rolls rise again for 15-20 minutes until slightly puffed.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the rolls bake, beat softened cream cheese and butter together until creamy.
- Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- Add 1 to 2 tablespoons milk as needed to reach a spreadable consistency.
- Once the rolls have slightly cooled but are still warm, generously drizzle or spread the cream cheese frosting over the top.
- Serve warm and enjoy the decadent flavor combination.
Notes
- For best results, let the dough rise in a warm place, such as near an oven or on a sunny windowsill.
- Adjust milk in frosting for desired consistency.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
