Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk and active dry yeast, allowing it to foam for about 5 minutes. Stir in granulated sugar, egg, egg yolk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until well mixed. Gradually add all-purpose flour and salt, then knead the dough with blue gel food coloring until blended. Cover and let rise for 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Prepare the filling by mixing softened butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon in a medium bowl. Stir in crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and mini chocolate chips until evenly combined.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a 14x9-inch rectangle. Spread filling mixture evenly across the dough, then tightly roll it into a log and slice into 12 pieces.
- Place the sliced rolls in a greased baking pan, cover with a towel, and let rise for 30-45 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Prepare the cream cheese icing by beating softened cream cheese and softened butter until smooth. Gradually mix in powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk for desired consistency.
- Once baked, let rolls cool for about 10 minutes. Drizzle with icing and sprinkle with optional toppings before serving.
