Deliciously soft and fluffy cinnamon rolls filled with white chocolate and pistachios, topped with a creamy frosting.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pistachios
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, heat milk and butter until warm. Remove from heat and stir in sugar and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and eggs. Add the yeast mixture and vanilla extract. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread melted butter over the surface, then sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, white chocolate chips, and pistachios.
- Roll the dough tightly and cut into 12 equal pieces.
- Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before frosting with cream cheese frosting.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of white chocolate.
- These rolls can be made ahead and frozen before baking.
- Adjust the amount of pistachios based on preference.
