Step-by-Step Instructions for Oreo Cinnamon Rolls
- Prepare the filling by combining light brown sugar, black cocoa powder, and ground cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Stir until thoroughly mixed and set aside.
- Make the dough by mixing all-purpose flour, instant dry yeast, and fine salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, warm milk and melt unsalted butter until lukewarm. Gradually add the liquid mixture to the flour blend, stirring until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface, adding more flour as needed until it becomes tacky yet pulls away from the bowl easily, about 5-7 minutes.
- Rest the dough in an oiled bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm area for 10-15 minutes until slightly puffy.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle about 12x18 inches. Spread softened unsalted butter over the surface, then sprinkle the prepared filling and crushed Oreos on top.
- Shape the rolls by tightly rolling the dough from one edge into a log and cutting it into 9 equal pieces. Place slices in a greased baking pan.
- Cover the pan with foil and let it rise in a turned-off oven for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove foil and bake for 26-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, softened butter, warm milk, and artificial vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
- Allow the rolls to cool for 10-20 minutes, then drizzle the glaze over the tops. Serve warm.
