Method
 

Step 1: Prepare the Dough
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and instant yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until slightly foamy.
  2. Add the egg and melted butter, mixing well. Gradually add flour and salt, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Step 2: Knead and Rise
  1. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 3: Prepare the Filling
  1. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. Keep the softened butter and Biscoff cookie butter ready for spreading.
Step 4: Roll Out the Dough
  1. Once risen, roll the dough into a rectangle about 30 × 20 cm (12 × 8 inches).
  2. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, followed by the Biscoff cookie butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly on top.
Step 5: Shape the Rolls
  1. Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Slice into even rolls and place them in a greased baking dish.
  2. Cover and let rise again for 25–30 minutes.
Step 6: Bake
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the rolls for 20–25 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
Step 7: Make the Glaze
  1. In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, Biscoff cookie butter, vanilla extract, and enough warm milk to reach a smooth, pourable consistency.
Step 8: Finish and Serve
  1. Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm cinnamon rolls. Let it melt into the swirls before serving.
