Make these soft, fluffy Oreo Cinnamon Rolls, swirled with chocolate filling and crushed Oreos, then top them with a decadent cream cheese Oreo glaze for an indulgent breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (14.4 ounces) refrigerated biscuit dough (or homemade dough)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup black cocoa powder (or regular unsweetened cocoa powder)
  • 1 cup finely crushed Oreo cookies (about 10 cookies)
  • 1/4 cup milk, plus more for brushing
  • For the Glaze:
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup crushed Oreo cookies (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: If using refrigerated biscuits, separate them. If making homemade dough, prepare according to your preferred recipe and let it rise.
  2. Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and cocoa powder until smooth. Stir in 1 cup of finely crushed Oreos.
  3. Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll your dough into a large rectangle, about 12×18 inches.
  4. Spread the filling: Evenly spread the Oreo cinnamon filling over the entire surface of the dough, leaving a small border on one long edge.
  5. 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.
  6. Second rise: Place the rolls in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Brush lightly with milk. Cover the dish loosely with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 30 to 60 minutes, or until puffy.
  7. Bake: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Bake the rolls for 18 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Make the glaze: While the rolls cool slightly, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar until combined. Mix in the vanilla extract. Stir in a tablespoon of milk if the glaze is too thick.
  9. Frost and serve: Spread the cream cheese Oreo glaze generously over the warm rolls. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of crushed Oreos on top. Serve immediately for the best gooey texture.

Notes

  • For extra gooey rolls, reduce the baking time by 2 minutes, or slightly underbake them.
  • If you want a stronger chocolate flavor, use black cocoa powder in the filling.
  • You can substitute store-bought cream cheese frosting for the homemade glaze if you need a faster option.
