Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
- 1 roll pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough (approximately 8 oz)
Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 can cinnamon rolls with frosting (approximately 8 count, 16 oz)
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking for both the cookie dough and the cinnamon rolls.
- Roll Out Cookie Dough: On a clean surface, roll out the pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough to about 1/4 inch thickness, creating enough surface area to wrap around each cinnamon roll.
- Cut Dough Around Rolls: Lay out each cinnamon roll on the rolled cookie dough and cut the dough around each roll, making individual cookie dough pieces sized to fully encase each cinnamon roll.
- Wrap Cinnamon Rolls: Take each cinnamon roll and carefully wrap it with the corresponding piece of cookie dough, ensuring the rolls are fully enclosed to prevent dough from spreading too much during baking.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each wrapped cinnamon roll on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between them to allow for expansion while baking.
- Bake: Bake the wrapped rolls in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes or until the cookie dough is golden brown and the cinnamon rolls are cooked through.
- Frost and Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately drizzle the included cinnamon roll frosting or your choice of frosting over the warm rolls. Serve warm for the best taste and texture experience.
Notes
- For an extra indulgent treat, add chocolate chips on top of the frosting before it sets.
- If desired, chill the wrapped rolls for 10 minutes before baking to help maintain shape.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently to preserve softness.
- Adjust baking time slightly if using larger or smaller cinnamon rolls.
