Chocolate Chip Cookie Rolls
These chocolate chip cookie rolls are made with soft milk bread dough, swirls of gooey chocolate chip cookie filling, vanilla bean icing, and mini chocolate chips baked into every bite. Soft, fluffy, and bakery-style, they taste just like a warm chocolate chip cookie in cinnamon roll form.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Make the Cinnamon Roll Dough
2
Whisk the water and flour in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened into a roux, about ⏱️ 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
3
Whisk the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a stand mixer bowl. Add the heavy cream, milk, egg, and tangzhong. Knead on low speed with the dough hook for ⏱️ 2 minutes until it forms a rough dough ball.

4
With the mixer running on low, add the softened butter one tablespoon at a time, letting it fully incorporate before adding more. Then, continue kneading for an additional ⏱️ 10-12 minutes, or until the dough appears smooth and elastic. Knead in the mini chocolate chips until combined.
5
Form the dough into a smooth round ball and place it back into the mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rest while you make the filling.
6
Make the Cookie Dough Filling
7
Cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar together for ⏱️ 3 minutes.
8
Mix in the egg and vanilla until combined.

9
Mix in the flour, salt, and baking powder until combined.
10
Bake and Fill the Rolls
11
Line a metal 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper.
12
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 15x21" rectangle, with the longest side closest to you. Spread the cookie dough filling across the entire surface of the dough. Then, evenly spread the chocolate chips over the filling, using your hands to press them into the dough so that they don't fall out.
13
Use a pizza cutter to cut twelve 1 3/4-inch strips. Roll each strip away from you, then place each one into the prepared baking pan.
14
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and set it aside to rise for ⏱️ 1-2 hours, or until the rolls have doubled in size. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325°F (162 °C).
15
Bake for ⏱️ 30-40 minutes, or until the center roll's internal temperature reaches 185°F.
16
While the rolls are baking, make the frosting. In a stand mixer bowl, paddle mix the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Then mix in the powdered sugar. Once combined, whisk in the heavy cream and vanilla until smooth.
