Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Dough
- Activate the yeast in a large mixing bowl by stirring together the warm milk, active dry yeast, and granulated sugar. Let it sit until the surface looks foamy.
- Whisk in the egg, egg yolk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and a few drops of blue gel food coloring until the mixture is evenly tinted.
- Add the flour and salt, then mix until you have a shaggy, thick dough with no big dry pockets of flour.
- Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, aiming for a soft dough that holds together.
- Cover the bowl and let the dough rise until puffy and doubled in size.
Prepare the Filling
- In a separate bowl, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until it becomes a spreadable paste. Stir in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and mini chocolate chips.
Roll and Shape
- Roll the dough into a rectangle, spread the filling evenly on top, then roll the dough into a log and slice into individual rolls.
- Arrange the rolls in a baking dish and let them rise again until plump.
Bake the Rolls
- Bake the rolls until lightly golden and cooked through.
Prepare the Frosting
- Beat the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth, mix in powdered sugar and vanilla, then fold in crushed chocolate cookies.
Frost and Serve
- Spread frosting over warm rolls and top with additional mini chocolate chips if desired.
Notes
Serve these warm for the best experience. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator.
