How to Make Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
- 1 tablespoon milk (for icing)
Directions:
Step 1: Preparation
In a bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. This combination forms the base of your cinnamon roll dough. In a separate bowl, combine the warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Make sure the milk is warm but not hot, as this will help activate the yeast.
Step 2: Mixing
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is well combined. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. This process develops the gluten in the dough, giving the rolls their delightful texture.
Step 3: Cooking
Let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles. Roll the dough out into a rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick. Spread the Biscoff cookie butter generously over the surface of the dough and sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Step 4: Finishing
Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut it into 12 equal pieces. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, ensuring they are close to each other to promote nice rising while baking. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. While the rolls are baking, mix together the powdered sugar and milk to create a simple icing. Once the rolls are out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the icing over the top. Enjoy the heavenly flavors!
How to Serve Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
These cinnamon rolls are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven. They make a fantastic breakfast option or a delightful afternoon treat with a cup of coffee or tea. For an extra touch, serve them with whipped cream or ice cream on the side.
How to Store Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
To store leftover cinnamon rolls, let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 days or stored in the fridge for up to one week. For longer storage, consider freezing them; simply wrap rolls tightly in plastic wrap and then place in a freezer-safe bag. They can last up to 3 months in the freezer.
Expert Tips for Perfect Biscoff Cookie Butter Cinnamon Rolls
- For a fluffier texture, be sure to knead the dough enough to develop the gluten.
- If you don’t have Biscoff cookie butter, you can substitute it with any other nut or cookie spread, like Nutella or homemade cookie butter.
- Add nuts or chocolate chips for an extra twist in flavor.
- Make sure your milk is warm but not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
Delicious Variations
- Apple Cinnamon Rolls: Add diced apples and a bit of nutmeg along with the cinnamon.
- Pumpkin Spice Rolls: Mix pumpkin puree into the dough and use pumpkin pie spice for a seasonal twist.
- Chocolate Hazelnut Rolls: Replace Biscoff with Nutella and add chopped hazelnuts for a chocolatey treat.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can I make the dough in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and allow it to rise, then refrigerate it overnight. Just let it come to room temperature before rolling it out. -
