Take-out Tuesday, Breakfast for Dessert Pie

We had a special weekend recently with friends, with lots of food, fun and sun
One of the treats we enjoyed was this Breakfast for Dessert pie…I know, r e a l l y ??
Favorite breakfast foods, like buttery cinnamon rolls with butter pecan “frosting” and a cup of coffee…
Combined to make this decadent ice cream pie!
Using mini cinnamon rolls from the deli bakery makes quick work of the crust, slice them in half horizontally and place them close together in a pie dish
Once the bottom and sides are covered, squish them together to eliminate any large holes and pour butter evenly over all
Use a spoon to press down and compact the rolls
Bake crust at 350 for 10-12 minutes to firm up. Let crust cool
Top cooled crust with a layer of softened butter pecan ice cream and place in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to firm up ice cream
Add the final layer of coffee ice cream and smooth out. Cover and place in the freezer until serving
Let pie sit out for a few minutes and then cut into wedges, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon

Thanks for stopping by my blog and yes we learn something new everyday and I was just as surprised and grateful that you can iron out the wrinkles on watercolour paper. Thanks Google!
Jenna, I’ve seen the cinnamon pie crust on Pinterest using the prebaked cinnamon rolls! Using ready made rolls and ice cream layers makes your pie quick and easy! I know your Breakfast for Dessert Pie had to be a hit with your company 🙂
My favorite ice creams are coffee and buttered pecan. This sounds divine!
I have never thought of using cinnamon rolls as a pie crust, but why not? Jenna, I love sweets for breakfast and this is a quick and easy dessert to serve with coffee! Sounds sinfully yummy!
