Oh Em Gee Nutella Cinnamon Rolls

I never thought about combining the rich, delicious taste of cinnamon rolls with the chocolately goodness of Nutella. But when I was scouring the vast plains of the internet for a suitable recipe for Nutella month, I knew I had to try these. This is going to be an amazingly simple post because we already know how to make the dough. We've done it before. In fact, it was the very first post on this blog. Now, with a few new steps, we're going to take those awesome cinnamon rolls in a whole new level of awesome.

What you need:
1 batch of cinnamon roll dough, prepared as in this post
1/3-1/2 cup of nutella (depends on what level of ooey gooey you're going for)
6 tablespoons butter
Cinnamon
3 cups powdered sugar
6 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Prepare your dough and roll it out into a 12x9 inch rectangle. In a microwave safe bowl, add the nutella and butter. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring after each one, until butter and nutella is mixed and smooth. Spread over the dough. Sprinkle cinnamon over the nutella filling.

Roll your dough into a 12 inch roll. Slice into eight pieces. Place into a round cake panned lined with parchment paper. Melt two tablespoons of butter and brush on top of the rolls.

Bake at 425 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes until the tops are golden brown. Dump the rolls out onto a greased wire rack.

 Allow rolls to cool slightly. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together milk, powdered sugar and vanilla. Glaze the still warm rolls.

Oh. Oh yeah. Look at that sexy roll.

 Now that is delicious! These rolls were incredibly rich and wonderful. They're more of a dessert than a breakfast, but buttery rolls really balance out the nutella well.

Good luck and happy baking!
