Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour (500 g)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 g)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 cup whole milk (240 ml), warmed
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (75 g), melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Filling

  • 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter (150 g)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (60 g)
  • 2 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter (30 g)
  • 12 tablespoons milk (1530 ml)

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a bowl, mix the warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the melted unsalted butter and eggs to the yeast mixture and stir until well combined to form the wet base of the dough.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients and Knead: Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt into the wet mixture. Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. Then cover and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
  4. Prepare Filling: While the dough is rising, mix 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter with 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl to create the flavorful filling.
  5. Shape Dough: Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured surface.
  6. Spread Filling: Evenly spread the Biscoff cinnamon filling over the rolled dough, leaving a small border around the edges to seal the rolls.
  7. Form Rolls: Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice it into 12 equal pieces. Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased baking dish, spacing them slightly apart.
  8. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for 30–45 minutes until puffy.
  9. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while the rolls complete their second rise.
  10. Bake: Bake the cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes until they turn golden brown and cooked through.
  11. Make Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter, and 1 to 2 tablespoons milk until smooth and creamy.
  12. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls before serving to add extra sweetness and the signature Biscoff flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure your yeast is fresh and active to guarantee a good rise in your dough.
  • Do not skip the glaze as it adds a perfect finishing touch to the rolls.
  • You can substitute Biscoff cookie butter with speculoos spread, peanut butter, or Nutella for flavor variation.
  • Store the rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days; refrigerate for longer storage and reheat before serving.
  • Dough can be made ahead and refrigerated overnight; allow 30 minutes to rise before baking.
