Introduction

These Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls offer a delicious twist on a classic favorite. Soft, fluffy rolls are filled with creamy cookie butter and finished with a sweet glaze for a perfect treat any time of day.

The image shows three cinnamon rolls arranged on a white plate, placed on a white marbled surface. Each roll has a thick swirl layered with dark brown cinnamon filling visible from the side and top. The outer dough is golden brown with a slightly textured and soft look. The rolls are covered in a smooth, glossy beige icing that drips down the sides generously. Crumbled brown sugar topping sits on the top of each roll, adding a rough texture that contrasts with the smooth icing. The focus is on the foremost roll with the other two softly blurred in the background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast (Check expiration date for freshness)
1 cup Warm Milk (110°F / 43°C, can use dairy or non-dairy)
1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (Can substitute with brown sugar)
1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (Melted, can use plant-based butter for vegan)
1 teaspoon Salt (Essential for flavor)
1 Large Egg (Can substitute with flaxseed or chia seed egg)
4 cups All-Purpose Flour (Can use whole wheat flour, adjust liquid)
1 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter (Ensure it’s vegan-friendly if needed)
1 cup Powdered Sugar (Adjust for desired sweetness)
2 tablespoons Milk (Use dairy or non-dairy based on preference)

Instructions

Step 1: Activate yeast by combining warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast in a bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until bubbly and frothy.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, mix the yeast mixture with melted butter, salt, egg, and flour. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
Step 3: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5: Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread Biscoff cookie butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
Step 6: Roll the dough tightly into a log, slice into 1-2 inch pieces, and arrange them in a baking dish.
Step 7: Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
Step 8: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Step 9: Let the rolls cool slightly, then drizzle with a glaze made by mixing powdered sugar and milk.

Tips & Variations

Use whole wheat flour for a heartier texture, but reduce liquid slightly to compensate.
Substitute the egg with a flaxseed or chia egg for a vegan option.
Try adding chopped nuts or raisins to the filling for extra texture.
Ensure the milk is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.

Storage

Store cooled rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze individually wrapped for up to 3 months. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.

How to Serve

Three cinnamon rolls are on a white plate sitting on a white marbled surface, each roll showing a rich brown, swirled dough base with a soft texture. The rolls are covered in thick, glossy white icing that drips down the sides, pooling slightly on the plate. On top of the icing, there is a sprinkling of crumbly golden brown sugar, adding a rough texture and contrast to the smooth glaze. The rolls are closely packed, with the center roll in clear focus, showing detail in the icing and crumb topping, while the others are softly blurred in the background.

FAQs

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the dough and do the first rise overnight in the refrigerator. Bring it to room temperature before shaping and continuing with the recipe.

What if I don’t have Biscoff cookie butter?

You can substitute with regular cinnamon sugar filling or another nut butter like peanut or almond butter, though the flavor will differ from the classic Biscoff taste.
