– The Oreos can be crushed in a food processor, chopped on a cutting board, or crushed in a plastic bag with a rolling pin.
– 1 packet or 7 grams of active dry yeast is needed for the recipe.
– Accurate measurements of the all-purpose flour can be achieved by weighing or properly spooning it into a measuring cup, scraping off any excess.

– Room temperature eggs should be used for better dough rising.
– Milk of choice, slightly warmed, can be used for the dough and glaze.
– Powdered sugar goes into the rolls and the glaze.
– Brown sugar is used for the gooey cinnamon filling.
– Ground cinnamon is a key ingredient.

– A cinnamon filling is prepared by mixing cinnamon, sugar, and butter in a medium bowl.
– The dough is then rolled into a large rectangle and the cinnamon filling and crushed Oreos are spread on top. The dough is rolled into a log and cut into 12 equal rolls.

– The dough is rolled out to a ¼ inch thick rectangle on a floured surface.
– A filling mixture of butter, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, cocoa powder, and salt is spread on the dough along with Oreo pieces.
