I grew up with a recipe that is similar to this one, except it had Rhodes Rolls and butterscotch pudding for the topping. BUT, I wanted to go from scratch and when I saw this I knew that it just might work! Here is how I changed it to be like the one I grew up with... I made the dough as specified but instead of rolling it out I stopped. I lightly greased two bundt pans, put finely chopped pecans and a handful of coconut in the bottom. Then I made the caramel sauce and put that on top of that. Then I took the dough and divided it as specified and made little balls and put that on top of the sauce. Then I followed the directions after that... covering, putting in fridge and baking in the morning, instantly flipping it out to let the sauce cover that rolls. It is beautiful and tasty!

I thought these were really good, but the caramel topping did not get as thick as I thought it would. I will try this again, maybe I did not bake them long enough.

I made these for a family brunch. I've always wanted to make cinnamon rolls and when my sister-in-law asked if I could bring "ooey-gooey sticky buns", I thought what a perfect excuse!! They turned out really tasty and everyone liked them. I was a little dissapointed that the caramel turned out more chewy than I expected... but then again I guess that is what caramel is. I will definitely make this recipe again because it was so easy and I had fun doing it! I might try to tweak the caramel topping a little to make it more "ooey-gooey"!

Excellent recipe! Makes a lot of rolls, easily fills 2-9x13 pans. 1 usually cook one, and freeze the other. I'm sticking with this recipe because it's great, it makes so much, and it's no more difficult than any other yeast bread. I have had the caramel turn out a little grainy, I'm going to try cooking the sauce longer.

My grandmother taught me her similar caramel roll recipe. Hers involved waking up at 3 am. Although it is absolutely amazing, I didn't make it that often for obvious reasons. I just tried leaving it in the fridge overnight like in this recipe and it was fantastic! I think overnight was even better because the rolls soaked up more of the caramel.

caramel rolls are the best! these always turn out and are relatively easy, you just have to start the night before and get up early to let them rise in the morning. i use 2 cups of whole wheat flour and brown rice syrup instead of corn syrup to make them a bit healthier, and i use walnuts instead of pecans. they fill two 9 x 13 pans, so they're great for a crowd. they make a big hit on a holiday, birthday or sleepover morning. my daughter always requests these rolls for her birthday.

Finally a recipe for Cinnamon rolls that works!! I have tried three times to make cinnamon rolls and none have turned out well. Finally on Easter I decided to give it one more try and it worked! At first this recipe intimidated me but I took it step by step and changed NOTHING and they were terrific. The best part was doing the work the night before and just popping them in the next morning. Next time I will eject them from the pans as I didn't do it right away on this batch. Delicious!! THANK YOU for this recipe!

Thank you Andrea for sharing this recipe!! I have tried several pecan roll recipes over the years but have always been disappointed. This one is the grand slam we have been looking for. Although our family is devoted to baking, I have a phobia of using yeast! But we carefully followed the instructions and this recipe came out perfect. My 10-year-old daughter made them together, splitting up the different steps and making the process go by faster. One thing to consider is to plan to be home for a while, since you need time to let the dough rise then continue with the rolling and cutting step. Have fun, this is a nice and rewarding family project!

These were AMAZING. I used to get these all the time when I lived in NJ and I really missed them. I cut the recipe in half but still used the same amount of brown sugar, butter and pecans and it was so good. It was a little time consuming but so well worth it.

Terrific! I halved the dough and kept the goo and pecans at full amount. I used a bread machine (just warmed up the h20 and milk), and they turned out great. They don't double in size in the morning, but it doesn't affect the roll at all. Thanks for sharing!

I have been looking for a great roll recipe for the longest time. I was a bit hesitant to try something from on line, but I gave it a shot and it turned out beautiful! I was a little crunched on time so the fridge time was not exactly the recomended, but they still worked, just like in the bakery, and I do mean these girls were huge! Try it for you family and I promise they will be asking for seconds.

These were SO good! i made these for christmas day breakfast and i used my bread machine to make the dough. The end result made a very pretty presentation and it was tasty as well! My only piece of advice is to make sure you only keep the pan inverted for the 2 minutes it states. I left it for about 10 and the rolls started sticking to the pan. I will definatly make these again for company!

I made this recipe for Christmas morning and was delighted with it. I have been making yeast breads for a long time and have never seen baking powder added to a yeast bread before. Next time I will make the rolls larger and have fewer rolls. Definitely at their best the first day of baking. I also think you could make them to the fridge stage and then freeze the buns for a later date. Be careful about adding the entire 7 cups at once, depending on the type of day --- you may need less flour. Thank you, Andrea, for a wonderful recipe.
