Ingredients
Scale
1 cup whole milk, warmed
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 large egg, room temperature
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened for filling
1 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter, slightly warmed
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup powdered sugar, for glaze
2 tablespoons Biscoff Cookie Butter, for glaze
1 tablespoon milk, for glaze
2 tablespoons heavy cream, for glaze
1/4 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter, for topping
Instructions
Activate the yeast: In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, yeast, and 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy.
Mix the dough: Add the remaining granulated sugar, egg, melted butter, flour, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Knead by hand or with a dough hook for 5 to 7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
First rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Prepare the filling: While the dough rises, mix the softened butter, 1 cup of Biscoff Cookie Butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl until combined.
Shape the rolls: Punch down the risen dough. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 12 by 18 inches.
Spread the filling: Evenly spread the Biscoff filling mixture over the entire surface of the dough, leaving a small border on one long edge.
Roll and cut: Starting from the long edge opposite the border, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam closed. Cut the log into 12 equal rolls.
Second rise: Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30 to 45 minutes until puffy.
Bake: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Make the glaze: While the rolls cool slightly, whisk together the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of Biscoff Cookie Butter, milk, and heavy cream until smooth.
Finish the rolls: Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm rolls. Top with small dollops or drizzles of the remaining 1/4 cup of Biscoff Cookie Butter. Serve warm.
Notes
For extra soft rolls, cover the pan with foil for the first 15 minutes of baking.
If your Biscoff Cookie Butter is too stiff, microwave it for 15 seconds to make it easier to spread.
You can make the dough ahead of time and let it cold-proof in the refrigerator overnight for easier morning assembly.
