OREO CINNAMON ROLLS

Who doesn’t love Oreos?

This tender dough is smothered with butter, cinnamon, and crushed Oreo cookies. It’s rolled up and baked to golden brown with a soft swirled center.

Make a quick frosting with heavy cream and powdered sugar and drizzle it abundantly over the sweet rolls.

INGREDIENTS

• Dough – I used a premade pizza dough for the dough. It’s ready when you are with no wait time. You can make this with any kind of pizza dough. I’ve used thick crust, thin crust, and regular. They all turn out great. However, I wanted to really showcase the Oreos in this recipe, so I chose the thin crust. Furthermore, you can make traditional Cinnamon Roll dough or use my one-hour cinnamon roll dough.
• Filling – I chose to include a classic cinnamon roll filling as well as the Oreos for more flavor. The filling has butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and Oreos.
• Frosting – You can leave these rolls plain or top with a basic glaze, cream cheese glaze, or chocolate glaze. I mixed powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream for the glaze. I used 2 cups of sifted powdered sugar and two to three tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. Sifting the powdered sugar is necessary, otherwise, you’ll have lumps that are impossible to whisk out. I much prefer heavy whipping cream over whole milk for a glaze. It’s creamier and, frankly, tastes better in my opinion. However, if you don’t have heavy whipping cream use whole milk and add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

HOW TO STORE OREO CINNAMON ROLLS

• Keep rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They’ll remain fresh for 3 days.
• Also, you can freeze baked cinnamon rolls. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer ziptop bag. Remove as much air as you can from the bag. They’ll thaw on the counter in a couple of hours. You can warm them in the oven covered with foil if you prefer.
