  8. Step 8: Cover the rolls and let them rise for 30–45 minutes until puffy.
  9. Step 9: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes until they are golden brown.
  10. Step 10: For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, Biscoff cookie butter, and milk until smooth.
  11. Step 11: Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls just before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • For a richer flavor, warm the Biscoff cookie butter slightly before spreading it on the dough to make it easier to spread evenly.
  • Try adding chopped pecans or walnuts to the filling for extra texture and crunch.
  • If you prefer a dairy-free option, substitute the whole milk with almond or oat milk and use a plant-based butter alternative.

Storage

Store leftover cinnamon rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. To reheat, warm them in the microwave for 20–30 seconds or in a low oven until heated through. The glaze can be refreshed or reapplied after reheating.

How to Serve

Four cinnamon rolls are placed closely on a white plate over a white marbled surface. Each roll has a thick, creamy, light beige icing layer that drips down the sides and pools slightly at the base. The cinnamon rolls have a warm brown dough with a visible spiral shape, showing inner layers of cinnamon filling. On top of each roll, there is a crumbly golden-brown streusel topping, adding a textured contrast to the smooth icing. Some streusel crumbs are scattered on the plate around the rolls. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the dough the night before and let it rise slowly in the refrigerator. Allow it to come to room temperature and rise further before rolling out and assembling the rolls.

Can I use regular peanut butter instead of Biscoff cookie butter?

While peanut butter will add a different flavor, it can be used as a substitute in a pinch. Keep in mind the unique spiced caramel flavor of Biscoff will be missing, so the rolls will taste different but still delicious.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour (500 g)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 g)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 cup whole milk (240 ml), warmed
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (75 g), melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Filling

  • 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter (150 g)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

For the Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (60 g)
  • 2 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter (30 g)
  • 12 tablespoons milk (1530 ml)

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: In a bowl, mix warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is active and ready.
  2. Combine wet ingredients: Add the melted unsalted butter and eggs to the yeast mixture, stirring well until all are fully incorporated.
  3. Prepare the dough: Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet mixture, kneading continuously until you get a smooth and elastic dough. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, which typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours.
  4. Make the filling: Mix together the Biscoff cookie butter and ground cinnamon until well combined, creating a spiced, spreadable filling.
  5. Shape the rolls: After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Spread filling: Evenly spread the Biscoff cinnamon filling over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
  7. Form the rolls: Roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish, arranged side by side.
  8. Second rise: Cover the arranged rolls and let them rise again for 30 to 45 minutes, until they become puffy and nearly doubled.
  9. Bake the rolls: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.
  10. Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, Biscoff cookie butter, and 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk until the glaze is smooth and pourable.
  11. Glaze and serve: Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm cinnamon rolls before serving to add sweetness and extra Biscoff flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the milk is warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast.
  • You can substitute whole milk with any other milk, but it may affect the texture slightly.
  • For best results, allow dough to rise in a warm, draft-free environment.
  • The rolls can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days. Reheat before serving.
  • Add nuts or raisins to the filling for extra texture if desired.
  • Adjust milk quantity in the glaze for your preferred consistency—thicker for drizzling, thinner for pouring.
