Steps
1
Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar and salt. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine melted Breyers® Natural Vanilla Ice Cream and butter. Heat until butter is melted and the mixture reaches about 110°F. Whisk in yeast until dissolved.
2
Pour warm mixture into dry ingredients and add the egg. Stir with a rubber spatula or use a stand mixer with a paddle or dough hook attachment on medium speed. Mix until a soft dough comes together.
3
Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, until smooth and soft. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
4
Fill the rolls: Roll dough into approximately a 14 x 8 inch rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the dough. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly over the butter. Starting with a long edge, tightly roll the dough into a 14 inch log. Cut into 12 even rolls.
5
For individual servings, place each roll in its own lightly greased 6 inch cast iron skillet, leaving room around the roll for the spiced apples. For a crowd, divide the rolls between two lightly greased 13 x 9 inch baking dishes, placing 6 rolls in each and spacing them apart to leave plenty of room for the spiced apples.
6
Cover and allow the rolls to rise in a warm place for 60 to 90 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
7
Prepare the spiced apples: In a large bowl, combine the apples, melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
8
Once the rolls have risen, arrange the spiced apples around the rolls, dividing them evenly among the individual skillets or between the two 13 x 9 inch baking dishes.
9
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are lightly golden brown and the apples are tender. Let cool slightly.
10
Top each warm cinnamon roll with a scoop of Breyers® Natural Vanilla Ice Cream and drizzle with caramel sauce, if desired.
