- 1 cup whole milk (warm)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp salt
- For the filling:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
- For the frosting:
- 1 cup cream cheese (softened)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (for garnish)
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and sugar; sprinkle the yeast on top, allowing it to activate for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour with salt.
- Add the melted butter, egg, and yeast mixture, stirring to combine.
- Gradually mix in the remaining flour, ensuring a smooth and soft dough.
- Use a floured surface to knead the dough for around 5-7 minutes until elastic and smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a floured surface.
- Roll the dough into a rectangular shape about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface.
- Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
- Carefully roll the dough tightly into a cylinder, starting from the longer side.
- Pinch the seams to secure and slice into 12 even pieces.
- Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish, allowing space for them to expand.
- Let the rolls rest for 30 more minutes before placing them in the preheated oven.
- Bake your rolls for approximately 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the ingredients for the frosting until smooth and creamy.
- Allow the rolls to cool slightly before generously spreading the white frosting on top.
- Finish with a sprinkle of crushed cookies for that essential topping.
- Serve warm for the best experience!
