Oreo-Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls

Introduction

When I first tried making Oreo-Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls, I knew I was onto something special. The combination of gooey cinnamon rolls filled with rich Oreo crumbles was irresistible, and the moment I pulled them out of the oven, the entire house was filled with a heavenly aroma. My family couldn’t wait to dig in, and their delighted faces were all the confirmation I needed that this recipe was a winner. If you’re looking for a treat that combines the best of both worlds—classic cinnamon rolls and beloved Oreos—then these rolls are for you!

Ingredients You’ll Need:

  • 1 5-count can of Pillsbury Grands cinnamon rolls
  • ½ cup (119 g) heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) cream cheese (optional), softened
  • 10 Oreo cookies, crumbled (plus extra for topping)

Instructions:

  1. Preparation: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for the deliciousness to come.
  2. Unroll and Fill: Carefully unroll the cinnamon rolls onto parchment paper. Generously sprinkle Oreo crumbles over each, keeping the cinnamon side up to capture the essence of both flavors.
  3. Roll ’em Up: Gently re-roll the strips, securely enclosing the Oreos inside. This step promises a delightful Oreo flavor in every bite.
  4. Bake with Love: Arrange the rolls in a baking pan. Evenly pour the heavy cream over them, then bake for 20-25 minutes until they turn a beautiful golden hue.
  5. Icing on the Cake: While the rolls bake, blend the reserved icing with cream cheese until smooth, preparing a luxurious topping for your rolls.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, drizzle the cream cheese icing over the warm rolls, sprinkle with additional Oreo crumbles, and serve immediately to capture their best taste and texture.
