Ingredients for Oreo-Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls

Here’s everything you’ll need to make this indulgent treat! These ingredients will turn a classic cinnamon roll into a cookie-filled masterpiece.

  • Cinnamon Roll Dough: You can use store-bought dough to keep it simple, or make your own if you’re feeling extra ambitious. Either way, it’s the soft, fluffy base that holds everything together.
  • Oreos: The key to the stuffing! You’ll crush these little cookies to create a rich, chocolatey filling that pairs perfectly with cinnamon.
  • Butter: Unsalted butter is what you’ll use to brush the dough before rolling it up. It adds richness and helps the cookies stick.
  • Cinnamon and Sugar: These classic ingredients give your rolls that signature cinnamon roll flavor and balance out the sweetness of the Oreos.

For the Glaze:

  • Powdered Sugar: To make the glaze smooth and sweet.
  • Vanilla Extract: A touch of vanilla in the glaze rounds out the flavor.
  • Milk: To thin out the glaze and give it that perfect pourable consistency.
  • Butter: Just a little bit of melted butter adds richness to the glaze and helps it set beautifully.

Prepare the Dough

If you’re using store-bought cinnamon roll dough, unroll it onto a flat surface and press it out gently to form a large rectangle. If you’re making your own dough, roll it out into the same shape—a nice rectangle that’s about 1/4 inch thick.

Make the Oreo Filling

Crush the Oreos! You can either use a food processor or put them in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin. You want them to be in small, even crumbs, but not powder—so leave a bit of texture.

Add the Cinnamon Sugar

Mix together the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Then, brush the rolled-out dough with melted butter, and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over the top.

Stuff with Oreos

Sprinkle the crushed Oreos evenly over the cinnamon sugar. Make sure they cover the entire surface for that perfect Oreo-stuffed bite.

Roll It Up

Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough up into a log. Don’t rush this step! You want to keep it tight but not too tight, so the filling doesn’t spill out.

Cut and Arrange the Rolls

Once you have the dough rolled up, slice it into about 8-10 rolls. Place them in a greased baking dish, making sure they’re close together but not touching. This helps them rise beautifully during baking.

Bake to Perfection

Pop the rolls into a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls have risen to perfection. Your kitchen will smell incredible while they bake!

Make the Glaze

While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla, milk, and melted butter to make a smooth glaze. If you like your glaze thicker, use less milk; if you want it runnier, add a bit more.

Glaze the Rolls

As soon as the rolls come out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the hot cinnamon rolls. The glaze will melt right into the warm, gooey rolls for that perfect sweet finish.

Serve and Enjoy

Once the rolls are glazed, let them cool for a few minutes before digging in. These warm, Oreo-stuffed cinnamon rolls are perfect with a hot cup of coffee or a glass of milk. Enjoy every indulgent bite!
