Make The Dough

  • Dissolve the active yeast in the water.
  • In a mixer using a dough hook, combine the powdered milk, dissolved yeast, and 2 Tablespoons of sugar until well combined.
  • Add in the butter, remaining sugar, and salt.
  • Slowly add in the flour until well combined, forming the dough into a ball.
  • Place the dough on a well-floured surface.

Make Filling

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9×13" pan.
  • Combine the cream cheese, butter, and sugar.
  • Add in the egg and cocoa powder, then mix until well combined.
  • Fold in the crumbled Oreos.

Bake Rolls

  • Roll out the dough to 1/4" thick on a well-floured surface.
  • Spread the filling to evenly cover the dough.
  • Roll up the dough lengthwise, then cut into 1/4”-1/2” slices.
  • Place close together in the pan.
  • Cover with a towel and let rise for about 20-30 minutes.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until browned.

Mix Icing
