Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk warmed to about 110°F
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Filling Ingredients

  • 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Glaze Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk for glaze consistency

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Mix well to ensure the yeast is evenly distributed.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk and melted butter until just warm (about 110°F). Remove from heat and stir in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and mix until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  • Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Form the Rolls

  • After the dough has risen, roll it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Evenly spread the crushed Oreos and ground cinnamon over the top.
  • Starting from one end, roll the dough tightly into a log.
  • Cut the log into 12 equal slices to create your rolls.
  • Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving some space between them. Cover and let them rise again for 30 minutes.

Bake the Rolls

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and baked through.

Prepare the Glaze

  • Mix the powdered sugar and enough milk to create a smooth drizzle. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls.

Notes

Serve warm for best flavor. Pair with coffee or milk. Consider freezing leftovers for later enjoyment.
