FHE treat

Last Christmas Leesa gave me a plate for the treat for Family Home Evening. But I always seem to forget to put the treat on this plate! But this is what it says:

This is the night
we've waited for;
Always a TREAT
we have in store!

We love each other
More and more with every
FAMILY NIGHT!

We have a treat almost every Monday night, but last night was especially yummy, so I'll share! Mmmmm!

Is your mouth watering yet? (That's ice cream and cookies.)
Delish!

Ooo, looks good! And excited for you to have a bread machine. If it has a "dough" setting, here's a great cinnamon roll recipe for you. I don't remember if you ever tried them, but they have caramel in the bottom of the pan. They're wonderful and so easy with a bread machine.

Enjoy!

P.S. Sorry for the ultra-lengthy post! :)

Caramel Cinnamon Rolls
This recipe uses a bread machine to make the dough. It’s way easy—just put the ingredients in and it does the work! But if you don’t have a bread machine, the thing that makes this recipe really good is the caramel on the bottom of the pan. You could use any cinnamon roll recipe and then add the caramel to the bottom.

Dough:
1 cup warm water (110 degrees f)
1 egg
3 cups bread flour
1/4 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons instant powdered milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
5 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon instant yeast

Caramel:
1/3 cup butter
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup brown sugar

Filling:
1/2 cup butter, softened (for spreading)
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions
1. Place water, egg, bread flour, white sugar, powdered milk, salt, 5 tablespoons butter and yeast in bread machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer. Select DOUGH setting, and turn machine on.
2. Meanwhile; in a small saucepan, melt 1/3 cut butter. Add 1/2 cup brown sugar and ice cream; bring to a boil, and cook for 2 minutes. Pour caramel into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13 inch pan.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees c)
4. When machine has finished cycling remove dough from pan and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat dough into a rectangle. Spread with softened butter and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. Crumble 1/2 cup brown sugar over the top. Roll up, and seal edge. Cut into 12 rolls, and place in prepared pan of caramel. allow to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees c) for approximately 20 to 25, until golden brown.
