# Ingredients:

→ Dough

01 - ½ cup granulated sugar
02 - 2 cups warm water (about 105°F/40°C)
03 - ¼ cup nonfat powdered milk
04 - ½ cup instant potato flakes
05 - 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon instant yeast (approx. 12 g)
06 - 5-6 cups bread flour
07 - 2 large eggs, room temp
08 - 1½ teaspoons salt
09 - ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
10 - ½ cup butter-flavored shortening

→ Filling

11 - 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
12 - ⅔ cup Biscoff cookie butter
13 - ¼ cup dark brown sugar, packed
14 - ⅓ cup unsalted butter, softened

→ Brown Butter Cream Cheese Frosting

15 - 3-5 tablespoons milk (use as needed)
16 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
17 - ¼ cup unsalted butter, cubed
18 - 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
19 - 1 pound powdered sugar
20 - 1 pinch of fine sea salt

→ Optional Garnish

21 - 2-3 crushed Biscoff Lotus cookies

# Steps:

01 - Combine warm water, milk powder, potato flakes, sugar, yeast, and salt in a bowl. Mix in butter, shortening, and eggs, gradually adding flour until the dough is smooth. Leave it to rise for about 1-1½ hours.
02 - Heat butter until you get golden brown bits at the bottom. Cool it completely in the fridge, then let it soften back to room temperature to use in the frosting.
03 - Whip browned butter with cream cheese, then mix in vanilla and salt. Alternate between powdered sugar and milk until you’ve got a smooth, creamy texture.
04 - Blend softened butter, cookie butter, sugar, and cinnamon together until it’s all combined and spreadable.
05 - Cut the dough into portions, roll it into large rectangles, and spread the filling generously on top. Roll them up tight, slice into rounds, and arrange on a sheet. Let them rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
06 - Put them in a 350°F oven and bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes after pulling them out.
07 - Slather the frosting on the rolls while they’re still warm. Wait a few minutes for it to set, then sprinkle on crumbled cookies if you’d like.

# Helpful Notes:

01 - You can freeze these ahead of time.
02 - Make the night before if needed.
03 - For precise cuts, try using unflavored dental floss.
