Instructions

  1. Prepare your grill for indirect grilling at 375 degrees with the lid closed.
  2. In a mixer, cream together sugar, butter and salt. Whip in egg and vanilla. Mix in flour, yeast, and milk. Mix on low speed until a dough ball forms. Then use a dough hook to knead until the mixture is smooth and supple or knead by hand.
  3. Lightly oil a large bowl and gently transfer the dough into the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a tea towel and allow to rise until dough doubles in size, about two hours.
  4. When the dough is almost done its first rise, make the glaze. In a mixer, cream together butter, sugar, brown sugar and salt. Add corn syrup and vanilla, continuing to mix on high until light and fluffy. Coat the bottom of a bread loaf pan with the glaze.
  5. Transfer the dough onto a flat, lightly floured surface, rolling into a rectangle about 10 inches wide by 6 inches high. Sprinkle the filling ingredients on evenly. Roll the dough towards you to form a swirl, then cut into 6 even pieces. Arrange pieces cut side up on the bottom of the pan. Cover again and allow to rise another hour.
  6. Place pan over unlit burner. Grill 35-40 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then flip pan onto a cutting board. Cut into evenly sized rectangles and grill again 1-2 minutes per side on your griddle or oiled grate, for an extra-sticky delicious treat. Top with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
