Stir in the yeast and let it sit for 5–10 minutes to bloom. -In a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer), add the melted butter, vanilla, eggs, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth, then pour in the activated milk-yeast mixture. -Add the flour, salt, and green food coloring. Mix on low speed for 2 minutes, then increase to medium speed and knead for 8–10 minutes. If mixing by hand, use a wooden spoon to bring the dough together, then knead on a floured surface for 10–12 minutes. -Place the dough in a greased bowl. Cover with a clean towel and let rise in a warm area for 1–1.5 hours, or until doubled in size. -During the last 15–20 minutes of rising, prepare the filling. Mix the melted butter and cookie butter until smooth; set aside. -In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon; set aside. -Once the dough has risen, punch it down. Flour your surface and roll the dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle. -Spread the butter–cookie butter mixture evenly over the dough. -Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top and gently press it into the dough. -Cut the dough into 12 equal strips and roll each strip into a swirl. -Grease your baking dish with softened butter. -Add the rolls to the dish, cover with a clean towel, and let rise for 30–45 minutes until puffy. -Preheat the oven to 350°F. -Pour the heavy whipping cream over the rolls. -Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the tops are golden. -While the rolls bake, make the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and cookie butter until smooth. -Add the powdered sugar and green food coloring; beat until fully incorporated, light, and fluffy. -Spread the frosting over the warm rolls. -Add heart sprinkles and enjoy immediately! 💚 #cinnamonroll #cookiebutter #christmasbaking #grinch #creatorsearchinsights — TikTok @lori_ilc
