Ingredients
  

For the rolls
  • 1 can refrigerated cinnamon roll dough, with icing packet included Use any brand available.
  • 10-12 pieces Oreo cookies, crushed into chunky crumbs Adjust the amount based on preference.
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted Helps to mix with the cookie crumbs for filling.
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar Adds sweetness to the filling.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Essential for that classic cinnamon roll flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened For mixing with icing.
  • 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream For thinning icing if needed.
Optional toppings
  • to taste extra Oreos for topping, mini chocolate chips, or a drizzle of chocolate Customize as per preference.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8 or 9 inch pan, or line it with parchment for easy cleanup.
  2. In a bowl, stir the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and half of the crushed Oreos until you have a sandy, slightly sticky mix.
Filling and Baking
  1. Open the cinnamon roll can and gently uncoil each roll into strips. Try to keep them from tearing.
  2. Spread a thin layer of the Oreo filling across each strip, then roll back up, pressing a few extra cookie pieces in as you go.
  3. Nestle the stuffed rolls in the prepared pan and bake for 16 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden and fully cooked in the center. If tops brown too fast, tent with foil.
Icing and Serving
  1. Mix the icing packet with the softened cream cheese and a splash of milk to create a tangy glaze.
  2. Spread the glaze over warm rolls so it sinks into the spirals.
  3. Sprinkle on the remaining crushed Oreos while the glaze is still glossy.
  4. Let them cool for just a minute, then enjoy.

Notes

Do not overfill the rolls, mix cookie crumbs in two sizes for the best texture, and frost while warm for optimal results.
