Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup whole milk warmed to 100–110°F
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast or instant yeast
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted or very soft
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup bread flour
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter softened (added after kneading)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup cookie butter Biscoff-style
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup finely crushed Biscoff cookies
- 1 cup cookie butter
- 1 cup heavy cream warmed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Crushed Biscoff cookies
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth. Cook over medium heat while whisking constantly until thickened, about 2–4 minutes. Let cool in a bowl.
- Combine warmed milk, yeast, and sugar in a mixing bowl and let it sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.
- Mix in melted butter, vanilla, eggs, and salt into the yeast mixture.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour and bread flour until a dough forms. Knead until smooth, adding softened butter after kneading.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Roll out the dough, spread with cookie butter, and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.
- Roll tightly into a log, slice into rolls, and place on a baking sheet.
- Let rise again until puffed, about 30 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven until golden, about 20-25 minutes.
- Mix heavy cream with vanilla, pour over warm rolls, and top with crushed Biscoff cookies and flaky sea salt.
Notes
Ensure the milk is at the right temperature for activating yeast.
For extra flavor, use fresh vanilla bean paste instead of extract.
These rolls can be frozen before baking for a convenient treat later.
