Servings: 8
Ingredients
Chocolate Cinnamon Rolls
- 8 ounces can of crescent rounds dough
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 to 3 tablespoons butter melted
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips chopped
Vanilla Glaze
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Lightly grease an 8-inch cake pan with non-stick spray; set aside.
- Make the cinnamon sugar. In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar.
- Prepare the dough. Separate the dough into 8 rolls and unroll them. Brush each piece of dough with the melted butter.
- Add the filling to the dough. Evenly divide and sprinkle a generous amount of the prepared cinnamon-sugar over each unrolled piece of dough. Then, sprinkle the chopped chocolate over the cinnamon-sugar.
- Roll them up and bake. Carefully roll up each piece of dough, pinching the seams together. Arrange the rolls 1 inch apart in the prepared cake pan and bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Make the glaze. Meanwhile, combine the milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly just until combined and no lumps appear. Remove from heat.
- Finish and serve. Remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and immediately brush the rolls with the prepared glaze. Serve.
