Ingredients:
Dough:

2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk (110°F/45°C)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
Cookies & Cream Filling:

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1 cup crushed Oreo cookies
Cream Cheese Glaze:

4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2-3 tbsp milk
1/2 cup crushed Oreo cookies for garnish
Directions:
Prepare the Dough:

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well.
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Prepare the Filling:

In a medium bowl, mix together the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until smooth.
Gently fold in the crushed Oreo cookies.
Assemble the Cinnamon Rolls:

Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Spread the cookies & cream filling evenly over the dough.
Starting from the long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log and cut it into 12 even slices.
Place the rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, cover, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Bake the Cinnamon Rolls:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Make the Cream Cheese Glaze:

In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk, mixing until smooth and creamy.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls and sprinkle with additional crushed Oreo cookies for garnish.
Serve:

Old-Fashioned Swiss Chocolate Cake Recipe

🍬 𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 🍬
2 cups all-purpose flour 🍚
1½ cups granulated sugar 🍬
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt 🧂
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 large eggs 🥚
1½ cups evaporated milk (12 oz can) 🥛
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened 🧈
4 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted 🍫
1 tablespoon vanilla extract 🍦
🍬 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 🍬
1️⃣ Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
2️⃣ Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat for 3-5 minutes until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
3️⃣ Add Eggs:
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition for a smooth batter.
4️⃣ Mix in Melted Chocolate:
Fold in the melted chocolate (cooled to room temperature). The batter will have a lighter color compared to traditional chocolate cakes.
5️⃣ Leavening Agents:
Add baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the mixture to ensure a light and airy cake texture.
6️⃣ Cornstarch Trick:
Stir in the cornstarch to improve the cake’s texture, especially useful if you don’t have cake flour.
7️⃣ Alternate Flour and Milk:
Gradually add the flour and evaporated milk to the wet mixture, alternating between the two. Begin and end with the flour, and mix just until combined to avoid overmixing.
8️⃣ Add Vanilla:
Stir in the vanilla extract for a rich undertone.
9️⃣ Bake the Cake:
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
🔟 Cooling Time:
Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.
Enjoy 😋🍬🍬
