Ingredients

12 Rhodes™ White Dinner Rolls thawed & risen
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups finely chopped walnuts

Browned Butter Icing

2 tablespoons butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons half & half
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

In a small bowl, mix butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in flour, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth. Stir in nuts. Cover and chill at least 30 minutes. Roll dough into a 15x10 inch rectangle. Crumble filling evenly over the dough to within 1 inch of all edges. Start from long side of rectangle and roll dough tightly (as for a jelly roll).

With a sharp serrated knife, cut roll in half lengthwise. Carefully twist halves together so cut sides can be seen. Place on a sprayed baking sheet.

Cover with sprayed plastic wrap. Let rise until double. Remove wrap. Bake at 350°F 20-25 minutes. Cover with foil the last 5 minutes. While warm, drizzle with browned butter icing.

Browned Butter Icing
Lightly brown butter in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Do not burn. Remove from heat and blend in powdered sugar. Blend in half & half and vanilla until mixture is smooth.
