Chocolate Cinnamon Rolls


Scrumptious and easy to make. Baked exactly how you like them and finished off with a heavenly glaze. A great alternative to a traditional holiday bread.

2 loaves (1 pound each) frozen white yeast bread dough thawed, divided

1/4 cup granulated sugar 

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 

2 (12-ounce package) cups NESTLÉ TOLL HOUSE Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels 

1 cup chopped nuts divided

1 cup powdered sugar sifted

3 tablespoons milk 

 

GREASE two 9-inch-round baking pans.

ROLL 1 bread loaf into 16 x 10-inch rectangle on lightly floured surface. Combine sugar and cinnamon in small bowl; sprinkle 2 tablespoons over dough leaving 1/2-inch border around sides. Sprinkle with 1 cup morsels and 1/2 cup nuts.

ROLL up dough starting at short end; seal edges. Cut into 6 slices; place cut side up in prepared baking pan. Repeat with remaining bread loaf, sugar mixture, morsels and nuts; place in second prepared baking pan. Cover; let rise in warm place until dough almost fills pans.

PREHEAT oven to 350° F.

BAKE for 25 to 30 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool slightly in pans on wire racks.

COMBINE powdered sugar and milk in small bowl to make a stiff glaze. Drizzle over cinnamon rolls.
