  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast 1 packet
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk warmed (110°F)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon red food coloring
  • For the Filling
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • For the Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Make the Dough
  • In a small bowl, combine warm buttermilk and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
  • Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, eggs, and red food coloring to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes, or use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  • Prepare the Filling
  • In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Roll and Fill the Dough
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle (about 16x12 inches) on a floured surface.
  • Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
  • Roll the dough tightly into a log, starting from the long edge. Slice into 12 equal pieces.
  • Let the Rolls Rise
  • Arrange the rolls in a greased or parchment-lined baking dish. Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until puffy.
  • Bake the Rolls
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
  • Make the Cream Cheese Frosting
  • Beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy and spreadable.
