Preparing Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
Making these cinnamon rolls is a step-by-step delight that starts with mixing simple ingredients. Here’s a quick overview: you’ll combine the dry ingredients, prepare a rich dough, allow it to rise, and then roll it out for filling. The frosting, made from powdered sugar and a dash of milk, adds the perfect finishing touch. It’s all about indulging your taste buds during this delightful process!
What you’ll need
To create these heavenly rolls, gather the following ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for frosting)
- 1 tbsp milk (for frosting)
Feel free to substitute almond milk for a dairy-free version or use coconut sugar instead of granulated sugar if you’re looking for a healthier alternative.
Directions to follow
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- Warm the milk and butter over low heat until melted. Allow it to cool slightly.
- Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, along with the egg. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for about 1 hour, until doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread the Biscoff cookie butter evenly across the top, then sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on top.
- Roll the dough into a log and slice it into 12 rolls.
- Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- For the frosting, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over the warm rolls before serving.
Best ways to enjoy it
These Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls are best served warm right from the oven. For an unforgettable breakfast experience, consider pairing them with freshly brewed coffee or a glass of your favorite almond milk. You could also serve them with fresh fruit or creamy yogurt on the side for a well-rounded meal.
How to store & freeze
If you’re lucky enough to have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. To keep them even fresher, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. For longer storage, they freeze beautifully – just wrap the rolls tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container. When you’re ready to indulge again, simply reheat in the oven or microwave!
Helpful cooking tips
Here are a few tips to ensure your Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls turn out perfectly:
- Make sure your milk is warm but not hot before adding it to the yeast; too heat can kill the yeast and prevent the dough from rising.
- Knead the dough until it’s smooth; this helps develop gluten, giving your rolls that fluffy texture.
- If you want extra gooey rolls, add a little more cookie butter or a drizzle of caramel before rolling them up.
Creative twists
While this recipe is delightful as-is, you can always get creative! Consider adding chopped nuts, raisins, or even a different flavored spread like Nutella for an indulgent twist. For a festive touch, try incorporating pumpkin spice during the fall holidays!
Your questions answered
Q: Can I make the dough in advance?
A: Absolutely! You can prepare the dough the night before, let it rise, and then store it in the refrigerator. Just allow extra time for the rolls to come to room temperature and rise before baking.
Q: What can I substitute for Biscoff cookie butter?
A: If you can’t find Biscoff cookie butter, you can use any smooth cookie butter or even Nutella for a different flavor profile.
Q: How do I know when they’re fully baked?
A: Your rolls are ready when they turn a lovely golden brown color and sound hollow when you tap on the bottom.
Q: Can I reduce the sugar in this recipe?
A: Yes, while they won’t be quite as sweet, you can reduce the sugar in both the dough and the filling to suit your taste.
