why make this recipe

These Oreo Cinnamon Rolls are quick and fun. You get soft cinnamon rolls with crunchy Oreo bits and chocolate. The sweet cream cheese glaze makes them rich. They work for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. They are easy if you use canned cinnamon roll dough.

introduction

Oreo Cinnamon Rolls mix a familiar roll with cookies and chocolate. The cookies add texture and a chocolate bite inside each roll. If you want a different color or flavor, try our pink velvet cinnamon rolls recipe for another idea.

how to make Oreo Cinnamon Rolls

  1. Preheat the oven as the cinnamon roll package says.
  2. Roll out the cinnamon roll dough into a rectangle.
  3. Mix crushed Oreo cookies with dark chocolate chips in a bowl. Spread this mix over the dough.
  4. Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other.
  5. Slice the roll into equal pieces.
  6. Place the slices in a greased baking pan. Bake as the package directs.
  7. Make the glaze: beat cream cheese and softened butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the glaze drips from a spoon.
  8. When the rolls are done and a little warm, drizzle the glaze over them.

Ingredients :

  • 1 can of cinnamon roll dough
  • 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-3 tablespoons milk

Directions :

Preheat the oven according to cinnamon roll package instructions. Roll out the cinnamon roll dough into a rectangle. In a bowl, mix crushed Oreo cookies with dark chocolate chips and spread this mixture over the dough. Roll the dough tightly and slice into equal pieces. Place the rolls in a greased baking pan and bake as directed. For the glaze, combine softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve a drizzle consistency. Once rolls are baked, drizzle with the vanilla glaze before serving.

how to serve Oreo Cinnamon Rolls

Serve warm for the best texture and flavor. Place on a plate and drizzle extra glaze if you like. These go well with coffee, milk, or hot chocolate. You can add fresh berries for color on the side.

how to store Oreo Cinnamon Rolls

Let rolls cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 10–20 seconds or in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5–8 minutes until warm. For longer storage, freeze unglazed rolls in a freezer bag for up to 1 month; thaw and bake or warm, then add glaze.

tips to make Oreo Cinnamon Rolls

  • Crush Oreos coarsely for bits of crunch and texture.
  • Press fillings gently so rolls hold shape when cut.
  • Don’t overfill; leave a small edge to seal the roll.
  • Bake as package shows; ovens vary, so check a minute or two early.
  • Warm rolls slightly before adding glaze so it melts into them.

variation (if any)

  • Use white chocolate chips instead of dark for a milder taste.
  • Swap cream cheese glaze for vanilla or chocolate glaze.
  • Add chopped nuts for crunch.
  • Mix vanilla pudding or a thin spread of peanut butter under the Oreo mix for a new flavor.

FAQs

Q: Can I make these with homemade dough?
A: Yes. Use your favorite cinnamon roll dough and follow the same steps.

Q: Can I skip the chocolate chips?
A: Yes. The rolls still taste great with just crushed Oreos.

Q: How do I make the glaze thinner or thicker?
A: Add milk a little at a time to thin. Add more powdered sugar to thicken.

Q: Can I prepare these ahead of time?
A: You can roll and slice the rolls, then cover and keep in the fridge for a few hours before baking. For longer hold, freeze before baking and bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.

Q: Are these safe for kids to help make?
A: Yes. Kids can help crush Oreos and spread the filling with supervision.
