These cookie butter cinnamon rolls are soft, gooey, and swirled with rich cookie butter and cinnamon sugar, then topped with a creamy cookie butter glaze. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, they bring a bakery-style indulgence right to your kitchen.
Make the Dough: In a bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit until foamy (5–10 minutes). Add flour, melted butter, egg, and salt. Knead until smooth and elastic, then cover and let rise for 1 hour.
Prepare the Filling: Mix cookie butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter until smooth.
Roll & Fill: Roll dough into a large rectangle. Spread the filling evenly, then roll tightly into a log. Slice into 12 rolls.
Second Rise: Place rolls in a greased 9x13-inch pan. Cover and let rise for 30–40 minutes.
Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown.
Make the Glaze: Beat together cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, cookie butter, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
Frost & Serve: Spread glaze over warm rolls and top with crushed cookies if desired.
Notes
Warm cookie butter slightly before spreading for easier application.
Don’t overbake—the rolls are best when soft and gooey in the center.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the fridge for 4–5 days.
