Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large egg
- Pinch of salt
For the Filling:
- 1 cup cookie butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
Instructions
For the Dough:
- 1. In a small bowl, mix warm milk, active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Let it sit for about five minutes until frothy.
- 2. In a large bowl, combine flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Create a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg. Mix until combined.
- 3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about five minutes until smooth and elastic.
- 4. Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about one hour).
For the Filling:
- 5. Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and roll it out into a rectangle about half an inch thick. Spread cookie butter evenly over the surface.
- 6. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the cookie butter layer.
- 7. Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log shape and slice into generous pieces (about two inches wide). Place slices cut-side up in a greased baking dish.
- Baking:
- 8. Let rolls rise again until puffy (about 30 minutes). Preheat oven to 350°F while they rise.
- 9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
