Cinnamon Rolls Oreo Stuffing

Pillsbury Oreo cinnamon rolls pack amazing flavor and couldn't be simpler to whip up! These tender, sticky delights merge the warmth of traditional cinnamon rolls with the tempting flavor of Oreo cookies. Using just three key ingredients plus a simple cream cheese topping, these cookies and cream spirals will quickly become your go-to treat for lazy Sunday mornings or after-dinner sweets.

I took these to a weekend get-together with my crew recently, and they were gone in minutes - way faster than any other food there. Even my buddy who always says "I don't really like sweets" wanted to know how I made them!

Key Components and Shopping Advice

• Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls: The package with 5 rolls works greatest for this creation
• Oreo Cookies: Standard Oreos do the job nicely, but don't be afraid to try different varieties
• Heavy Cream: This magic addition makes boxed rolls taste like they're from scratch
• Cream Cheese: Not required but makes the packaged icing way creamier

Straightforward Cooking Steps

1. Get Ready: Turn your oven to 350°F and coat an 8 or 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. This helps your rolls come out clean after cooking.
2. Open and Flatten: Pop open the cinnamon roll can and save the icing packet. Carefully unwrap each roll on parchment paper, keeping the cinnamon side facing up.
3. Cookie Time: Scatter broken Oreo pieces across the cinnamon coating on each strip. The cookie bits add awesome chocolate notes that match perfectly with the spicy cinnamon.
4. Roll Them Back Up: Slowly curl each strip back into a spiral, trying to keep the Oreo chunks inside. Don't stress if some fall out – just push them back in.
5. Put in Dish: Set the rolls in your greased dish with tiny gaps between them. They need some room to grow while baking.
6. Pour Cream: Drizzle heavy cream over and around the rolls in the dish. This trick transforms store-bought rolls into something that tastes homemade – it creates an incredibly soft middle.
7. Bake Them: Cook in your hot oven for 20-25 minutes until they turn golden on top. Your kitchen will smell amazing with cinnamon and chocolate scents.
8. Fix the Icing: While you wait, mix the icing from the package with soft cream cheese until smooth. This makes a much tastier topping than using the original icing by itself.
9. Top While Hot: Smear your cream cheese mixture onto the rolls right when they come out of the oven. The heat helps the icing sink into all the little spaces.
10. Finish with Style: Toss some extra Oreo crumbs on top for more cookie goodness and a pretty look.

I figured out these tricks after making this dish multiple times, especially when my first try turned out kind of dry because I didn't add the heavy cream. Now I always let them sit for those 5 minutes before digging in.

Tasty Twists to Experiment With

You can change up these Oreo cinnamon rolls so many ways! Try making them with different Oreo types like mint, golden Oreos, or whatever's in season like pumpkin spice. For a kid's party, grab Birthday Cake Oreos and throw some colorful sprinkles on the icing. During Christmas, go for peppermint Oreos with crushed candy canes sprinkled on top.

Tricks for Super Sticky Centers

Getting that perfect gooey middle comes down to using enough cream and watching your bake time. If your oven gets really hot, peek at the rolls around 18 minutes so they don't burn. Want them even richer? Mix a spoon of melted butter into your cream cheese icing. Let everything cool about 3-5 minutes after baking before adding the icing for the best texture.

Family-Friendly Kitchen Activity

Kids can totally help make these treats! Little ones can crush cookies, unwrap the dough, sprinkle on the Oreos, and spread the icing. It's a fun way to cook together without the stress of complicated steps. My sister's kids love making these when they stay over, and they can't stop smiling when sharing what they made.

Prep Ahead and Saving Leftovers

You can get these rolls ready the evening before - just put everything together except the cream. In the morning, pour the cream on and pop them in the oven. Got extras? They'll stay good in a sealed container in your fridge up to 4 days. Warm up single rolls in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them taste fresh again, or wrap in foil and heat in a 300°F oven for 5-7 minutes.
