Description

Delightful cinnamon rolls with a playful blue frosting, evoking warmth and connection among family and friends.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup crushed chocolate chip cookies
  • 1 cup blue frosting

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm milk and sugar, then sprinkle the yeast on top. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Whisk in the melted butter and one egg. Gradually add the flour, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise for about 60 minutes until doubled in size.
  4. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  5. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread softened butter, and evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture and crushed cookies over the top.
  6. Roll the dough tightly from one long edge, slice into 1-2 inch pieces, and place them in a greased baking pan to rise for 30 minutes.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden.
  8. Once cooled slightly, frost with blue frosting and top with additional crushed cookies.

Notes

For an extra delicious twist, consider adding different types of crushed cookies or drizzling caramel over the frosted rolls.
