Welcome to the World of Gooey Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls!
Hello, lovely friends! Are you ready to treat yourself to something absolutely delectable? I’m super excited to share with you my favorite recipe for Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls. I mean, who could resist a warm, gooey cinnamon roll topped with that ridiculously delicious Biscoff cookie butter? These rolls are perfect for a cozy breakfast or a delightful dessert after dinner.
The Sweet Perks of Cinnamon Rolls
Now, aside from the joy of indulging in these dreamy rolls, let’s talk about some nutritional benefits. When you make these at home, you have control over the ingredients. You can use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour for added fiber, or even swap in a dairy-free milk to cater to dietary restrictions!
Adaptable Variations
- Nut Lovers Delight: You can add chopped pecans or walnuts in the filling for an extra crunch and nutty flavor! Just mix them in with the brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Spice It Up: If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding a bit of nutmeg or pumpkin spice for a seasonal twist!
- Chocolate Lovers: Consider drizzling some melted chocolate over the finished rolls for an extra layer of sweetness—because why not?
- Going Vegan: Replace the egg with a flaxseed egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons water) and choose plant-based milk and butter to accommodate a vegan diet!
Make Your Own Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk (warmed)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter (for filling)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (for filling)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for filling)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for drizzling)
- 1-2 tablespoons milk (for drizzling)
- Additional Biscoff cookie butter (for topping)
Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, the instant yeast, and salt. Mix it well—this is your dry mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of warmed milk, melted butter, and the egg until combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Don’t worry; it might seem a little sticky at first!
- Now, dust a lightly floured surface and knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. Your arms might get a little workout, but trust me, it’s worth it!
- 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 it doubles in size.
- Once it has risen, roll the dough out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Get that rolling pin out!
- Spread 1/2 cup of Biscoff cookie butter evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. So gooey, right?
- In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle this over the cookie butter layer.
- Starting from one of the longer edges, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log. The smell is already heavenly!
- Cut the rolled dough into 1-inch slices and place them in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll.
- Cover the dish with a towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes. Patience is key here!
- While they’re rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Once they’ve risen again, bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes until they’re gorgeous and golden brown on top.
- While they’re baking, prepare the drizzle! Mix the powdered sugar and 1-2 tablespoons of milk in a small bowl until smooth.
- Once the rolls are done, let them cool slightly. Then drizzle additional Biscoff cookie butter and that lovely icing over them!
- Serve warm and watch everyone melt into happiness!
Practical & Valuable Tips
- If you want soft, fluffy rolls, make sure not to over-knead or over-bake them.
- Feel free to prep these rolls the night before—just let them rise in the fridge overnight before baking!
- Store any leftovers (if there are any, ha!) in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They’ll keep their gooey goodness!
Equipment Needed
To make this dreamy dessert, you’ll need a few simple tools:
- A large mixing bowl
- A whisk for mixing
- A rolling pin for rolling out the dough
- A sharp knife or dental floss (yes, really!) for cutting the rolls
- A greased baking dish for baking your scrumptious rolls
- A small bowl for mixing the drizzle
- A kitchen towel to cover your dough while it rises
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use regular peanut butter instead of Biscoff cookie butter? Absolutely! It’ll give a different flavor, but still delicious.
- How can I make these rolls ahead of time? You can prepare the rolls and let them rise in the fridge overnight before baking for fresh rolls in the morning!
- Can I freeze these cinnamon rolls? Yes! Just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw and warm them up as needed!
- What if I don’t have instant yeast? You can use active dry yeast but be sure to proof it first by mixing it with warm water and a bit of sugar until bubbly.
- Can I add fruits into the filling? Yes! Chopped apples or bananas would be a wonderful addition!
