Why These Cinnamon Rolls Are Unique
What makes Biscoff special
Biscoff cookie butter has a caramelized, spiced cookie flavor that perfectly complements cinnamon. It adds richness and depth to a classic roll.
A twist on tradition
Instead of the usual butter and sugar filling, you get a warm, gooey cookie butter swirl plus a drizzle of Biscoff glaze on top.
Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s what you need to bring these indulgent rolls to life:
For the rolls
- 1 can refrigerated cinnamon rolls (8 count, with dough + icing packet)
- ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the glaze
- 3 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter
- 2 tablespoons milk (dairy or plant-based alternative)
Optional add-ins: chopped pecans, mini chocolate chips, or pumpkin spice for a seasonal twist.
Preparing the Dough
Step 1 – Unroll the cinnamon roll dough
Carefully unroll each cinnamon roll from the can. Lay them flat on a clean surface or parchment paper.
Pro tip: If the dough tears slightly, press it back together with your fingers.
Step 2 – Spread the Biscoff filling
Using a spoon or spatula, spread a thin, even layer of cookie butter across the dough. Make sure you reach the edges so every bite has flavor.
Step 3 – Sprinkle with cinnamon
Dust ground cinnamon evenly over the cookie butter. This deepens the spiced flavor and balances the sweetness.
Step 4 – Re-roll the dough
Gently roll the dough back into its spiral shape, keeping it tight but not squished.
Step 5 – Place in baking dish
Arrange the rolls in a greased or parchment-lined baking dish, leaving space between them so they can expand as they bake.
Baking the Rolls
Step 6 – Preheat your oven
Set your oven according to the cinnamon roll package instructions, usually 350°F (175°C).
Step 7 – Bake
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through in the center.
Pro tip: Cover loosely with foil if the tops are browning too fast before the centers are done.
Making the Biscoff Glaze
Step 8 – Prepare the glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together:
- 3 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter
- 2 tablespoons milk (add more or less depending on desired thickness)
Step 9 – Adjust consistency
If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk. If too thin, stir in more cookie butter.
Finishing Touches
Step 10 – Cool slightly
Let the rolls cool for about 5 minutes before glazing. If you glaze them too soon, it will melt and slide off.
Step 11 – Drizzle the glaze
Pour or drizzle the cookie butter glaze over the warm rolls, letting it seep into the crevices.
Step 12 – Serve warm
Enjoy these cinnamon rolls gooey and fresh from the oven. They’re best eaten warm with coffee, tea, or a cold glass of milk.
Pro Tips for Success
- Don’t overfill: Too much cookie butter can make the rolls soggy.
- Spacing is key: Leave enough room in the dish for the rolls to expand.
- Timing matters: Bake until golden brown but still soft in the center.
- Glaze at the right moment: Wait a few minutes after baking before adding glaze.
Flavor Variations
- Nutty Biscoff rolls: Add chopped pecans or walnuts before rolling.
- Chocolate lovers: Sprinkle mini chocolate chips inside with the cookie butter.
- Holiday twist: Replace cinnamon with pumpkin pie spice for a festive flavor.
