Indulge in Homemade Decadence: Quick & Easy Chocolate Hazelnut Sweet Rolls

There’s a special kind of magic that fills a home with the aroma of freshly baked sweet rolls in the morning. For me, that magic has always been synonymous with cinnamon rolls, especially those lovingly prepared by my mom. Christmas, birthdays, and countless other cherished family occasions were heralded by the comforting scent of her cinnamon rolls, a testament to her dedication as she rose before dawn to get them baking.

As I’ve grown older, and perhaps a little wiser (and certainly more appreciative of sleep!), I often marvel at how she managed it all, raising five energetic children. Balancing two kids and a busy life already feels like a marathon, let alone five! This realization has led me to seek out smarter, more efficient ways to enjoy those beloved homemade treats without sacrificing precious time or quality. While I’ve embraced strategies like overnight recipes or even enjoying S’mores cinnamon rolls as an evening indulgence, there’s always a desire for something truly quick and utterly swoon-worthy.

Today, I am absolutely thrilled to share a sweet roll recipe that perfectly embodies that balance: a rapid path to pure bliss. These Chocolate Hazelnut Sweet Rolls come together in about an hour, delivering an irresistible flavor profile that will quickly become a cherished favorite. They’re a testament to the fact that you don’t need to spend all day in the kitchen to create something truly extraordinary.

The Irresistible Allure of Hazelnuts and Chocolate

Hazelnuts have always held a special place in my heart, and like many, I confess to a complete addiction to that iconic hazelnut chocolate spread. The rich, nutty notes combined with creamy chocolate create a symphony of flavors that is hard to resist. The idea of translating that beloved combination into a warm, fluffy sweet roll was simply too tempting to ignore. What better way to elevate this dream than by pairing it with my favorite International Delight Hazelnut flavored coffee creamer? It was a stroke of genius, if I do say so myself – these rolls are beyond delicious!

The magic of this recipe lies in the integration of the hazelnut creamer not just into the dough, but also into the luscious glaze. This clever addition creates an incredible depth of hazelnut flavor that permeates every single bite. From the tender crumb of the roll to the sweet, glossy finish, you’ll experience a consistent, comforting hazelnut essence that truly sets these sweet rolls apart from anything you’ve had before.

Crafting Your Delicious Chocolate Hazelnut Sweet Rolls

One of the best features of this recipe is how quickly and easily the dough comes together. It’s incredibly forgiving and a joy to handle, making the process of shaping these delightful spiral nests a absolute breeze. Even if you’re not an experienced baker, you’ll find this dough responsive and easy to work with, building your confidence in the kitchen.

After a surprisingly quick rise, a small indentation is made in the center of each roll. This technique is similar to how you might prepare a classic thumbprint cookie, creating the perfect pocket for our star filling. Into this cozy little well, you’ll spoon your favorite hazelnut chocolate spread. Imagine the warm, melting chocolate and hazelnut goodness bursting forth with every bite – it’s a total yum factor, elevated to an art form.

Once filled, these beauties are ready for their golden transformation in the oven. While they bake to perfection, you’ll have just enough time to whip up the hazelnut glaze, ensuring it’s fresh and ready to adorn your warm rolls. By this point, your kitchen will undoubtedly be filled with the intoxicating aroma of hazelnuts and chocolate wafting from your oven, a promise of the deliciousness to come.

The moment they emerge, golden and inviting, it’s time for the final touch: a quick, elegant drizzle of that homemade hazelnut glaze. Or, if you’re anything like Bryce (or me!), you might opt for a very generous, indulgent cascade of glaze. Either way, these rolls are then ready to be devoured, offering an unparalleled blend of tender pastry, rich chocolate, and aromatic hazelnut.

Your New Go-To for Any Occasion

Whether you’re planning a leisurely weekend breakfast, an elegant brunch spread, or simply seeking an irresistible afternoon treat, these Chocolate Hazelnut Sweet Rolls are the perfect choice. Their quick preparation time means you don’t have to wait for a special occasion to enjoy them, but their exquisite flavor makes them worthy of any celebration. Imagine serving these warm, fragrant rolls to delighted guests or simply savoring one with your morning coffee. They are truly versatile and universally loved.

Don’t hesitate to add this recipe to your baking repertoire. The combination of speed, ease, and phenomenal flavor makes these sweet rolls an absolute must-try. Get ready to impress your taste buds and those of your loved ones!

Cuisine: American

Keyword: chocolate hazelnut sweet rolls

Prep Time: 1 hour

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Servings: 12 rolls

Calories: 266 kcal

Author: Trish – Mom On Timeout

Ingredients

1/2 cup International Delight’s Hazelnut Creamer
1/2 cup water
3 tbsp sugar
2 1/4 tsp yeast
1 egg lightly beaten
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter, melted
12 tsp hazelnut chocolate spread
2 tbsp butter, melted (for brushing rolls)
1 to 2 tbsp International Delight’s Hazelnut Creamer (for glaze)
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted (for glaze)

Instructions

Heat 1/2 cup creamer and 1/2 cup water to between 110ºF and 120ºF.
In a mixer bowl, combine the warmed creamer and water mixture with sugar and yeast. Let this stand for five minutes until it becomes nicely foamy, indicating the yeast is active.
Stir in the lightly beaten egg.
Add one cup of flour and salt to the mixture and mix until the batter is smooth.
Mix in the 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
Gradually add the remaining 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, adding approximately 1/2 cup at a time, continuing to mix until a soft and smooth dough forms.
Switch to the dough hook attachment on your mixer and knead the dough for an additional 3-4 minutes to develop its gluten.
Divide the prepared dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece out into a rope that is about 13-15 inches long, then loosely coil it to create a nest shape. Pinch the ends together firmly to seal each roll.
Arrange the shaped rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover them with a clean towel and allow them to rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until their size has visibly doubled.
While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
Once risen, use the back of a spoon to gently create indentations in the center of each roll.
Fill each indentation with 1 teaspoon of hazelnut chocolate spread.
Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter before baking.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the rolls are very lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on them to prevent overbaking.
While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar and 1 to 2 tablespoons of International Delight’s Hazelnut Creamer to create a smooth glaze. Adjust creamer quantity for desired consistency.
Once the rolls are out of the oven, immediately drizzle the hazelnut glaze generously over the top.
Serve these delectable Chocolate Hazelnut Sweet Rolls immediately and enjoy!
