Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 cup warmed milk (about 110℉)
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 2 large eggs (room temperature, lightly beaten)
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 10 tbsp unsalted butter (cubed, room temperature)
Filling
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed, light or dark)
- 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups chopped chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
Topping
- 7 oz vegan marshmallow crème
- 2 tbsp water
Instructions
- Activate the yeast: Warm the milk to about 110℉ and mix with the active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes foamy, indicating the yeast is active.
- Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the lightly beaten eggs, granulated sugar, salt, and cubed butter. Mix well until combined.
- Add flour and knead: Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms. On a floured surface, knead gently until smooth and elastic.
- First rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm spot for about an hour or until it doubles in size.
- Prepare the filling: In a bowl, blend together the softened butter, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, chopped chocolate, and graham cracker crumbs until evenly mixed.
- Shape the rolls: Roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Spread the prepared filling evenly over the dough. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into about 12 even pieces.
- Second rise: Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased baking dish. Cover and let them rise another 30 minutes to puff up.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350℉. Bake the cinnamon rolls for about 23 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Add marshmallow topping: While the rolls are still warm, spread the vegan marshmallow crème on top. Optionally, toast lightly under a broiler or with a kitchen torch for a classic s’mores effect.
Notes
- Ensure the milk is not too hot when activating the yeast to avoid killing the yeast.
- You can substitute vegan butter if you want the entire recipe to be vegan.
- Chopping the chocolate finely helps it melt into the filling evenly.
- Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool slightly before spreading the marshmallow crème to prevent it from becoming too runny.
- For a crispier topping, briefly toast the marshmallow crème under a broiler or with a kitchen torch just before serving.
