Ingredients
Scale
Dough:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) warm water
- 1/4 cup (28 grams) nonfat powdered milk
- 1/2 cup (56 grams) instant potato flakes
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon (12 grams) instant yeast
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 5–6 cups (625–750 grams) bread flour
Filling:
- 2/3 cup (160 grams) Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/3 cup (76 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup (165 grams) dark brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Frosting:
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, cubed
- 4 ounces (113 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch fine sea salt
- 1 pound (454 grams) powdered sugar
- 3–5 tablespoons (45–75 milliliters) milk, as needed
Optional Garnish:
- 2–3 Biscoff Lotus cookies, crumbled
Instructions
- Craft a versatile dough by blending lukewarm water, milk powder, potato flakes, sugar, yeast, and salt. Gradually incorporate softened butter, shortening, and eggs, then fold in flour incrementally. Knead the mixture until achieving a silky, elastic consistency. Allow dough to rest and expand at room temperature for approximately 75 minutes.
- Create brown butter by heating until golden-brown specks develop, releasing a nutty aroma. Refrigerate until solidified, then restore to room temperature for frosting preparation.
- Whip brown butter with cream cheese until smooth and uniform. Introduce vanilla and salt, then alternately mix powdered sugar and milk, creating a velvety, spreadable frosting.
- Develop filling by combining Biscoff spread, melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Blend until achieving a uniform, creamy texture that will roll easily.
- Divide proofed dough into sections, rolling each into rectangular shapes. Generously spread prepared Biscoff filling across surface, then tightly roll and slice into individual rounds. Arrange on prepared baking sheet and permit second rise for approximately 50 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake rolls for 20 minutes, monitoring until achieving golden-brown edges and center appears fully cooked.
- Once slightly cooled, lavishly spread prepared frosting across warm rolls. Optional: Garnish with crushed Biscoff cookie crumbles for enhanced texture and presentation.
Notes
- Brown butter technique ensures rich, nutty flavor depth beyond traditional butter, elevating the entire roll’s taste profile.
- Consider chilling dough longer for more developed gluten structure, creating softer, more tender rolls with improved texture.
- Swap Biscoff spread with almond or cashew butter for alternative dietary needs while maintaining similar creamy consistency.
- Room temperature ingredients guarantee smoother mixing and more consistent dough development, preventing potential clumping or uneven texture.
