Ingredients in Ferrero Rocher Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Roll Dough: Use store-bought dough for a quick option or homemade dough for extra fluffiness.
Ferrero Rocher Chocolates: The star ingredient! Chopped into bits for that signature crunchy, creamy texture.
Butter: A must for greasing the dough and adding richness to the filling.
Brown Sugar: Sweet and deep-flavored, adding the perfect sweetness to complement the cinnamon.
Ground Cinnamon: The key spice that gives the rolls their signature flavor.
Vanilla Extract: Adds a little extra warmth to the filling.
Heavy Cream: To pour over the rolls for an ultra-rich finish.
Powdered Sugar: To make a simple glaze to drizzle on top once they’re baked.
Chopped Hazelnuts: Optional, but they add an extra layer of crunch and nutty flavor.

Instructions

Prepare the Dough

Preheat your oven to 375°F. If using store-bought dough, unroll it onto a lightly floured surface. If using homemade dough, roll it out into a rectangle.

Make the Cinnamon Filling

Melt butter and mix with brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Spread the mixture evenly over the dough.

Add Ferrero Rocher Chocolates

Roughly chop the Ferrero Rocher chocolates and sprinkle them evenly over the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Roll Up and Slice

Carefully roll the dough tightly, sealing the edges. Slice into 12 even rolls and place them in a greased baking dish.

Bake

Pour heavy cream evenly over the rolls, then bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Make the Glaze

While the rolls are baking, mix powdered sugar with a little water or milk to create a smooth glaze. Once the rolls are out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over them.

Serve and Enjoy

Let the rolls cool slightly before serving, allowing the gooey center to set just enough. Then, dig in and enjoy that chocolatey, hazelnut goodness with every bite!

How to Serve Ferrero Rocher Cinnamon Rolls

These indulgent rolls are perfect on their own, but they pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee, hot chocolate, or even a glass of milk. If you’re feeling extra, serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent treat. They also make an amazing dessert for holiday gatherings or brunches!

Additional Tips

If you want to make these rolls the night before, simply assemble them and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let them come to room temperature and bake.
Use a serrated knife to cut the rolls so you get a clean slice and avoid squishing them.
For extra flavor, sprinkle a few more chopped Ferrero Rocher chocolates on top after glazing.
Feel free to add a dash of hazelnut extract to the cinnamon filling for an extra nutty flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to a month.
