Ingredients (Makes 12 rolls)
For the Dough:
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (+ extra for rolling)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) instant yeast
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk (warmed to 110°F/45°C)
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
For the Filling:
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 12 Oreo cookies
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- Crushed Oreos
- Chocolate drizzle
Instructions
- Make the Dough:
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- Add warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Roll out the dough into a 12×9-inch rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Add the Oreos:
- Place Oreo cookies in a single layer over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll and Cut:
- Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut into 12 equal slices using a sharp knife or dental floss.
- Bake:
- Place the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Make the Glaze:
- Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over the warm rolls.
- Serve:
- Top with crushed Oreos or a chocolate drizzle, if desired.
Tips for Success
- Oreo Variations: Use Double Stuf Oreos for extra creaminess or flavored Oreos like mint or peanut butter.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the rolls the night before and refrigerate. Let them come to room temperature before baking.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve warm with a glass of milk or coffee.
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an over-the-top dessert.
