A Sweet Sunday Treat

While you're enjoying a favorite cup of coffee or tea, skip the donut and consider this very easy breakfast treat. It is company worthy! And uses only 6 ingredients!
Caramel Rolls
Ingredients:
  • 1 package (12 count) of frozen cinnamon rolls
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1/4 cup Light Karo Syrup
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons whipping cream
  • 3/4-1 cup pecan halves or chopped walnuts
Directions:
  • In 1-quart saucepan, heat brown sugar and butter to boiling, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in corn syrup and whipping cream. Heat to boiling. Remove from heat; cool for 5 minutes.
  • Spray bottom and sides of 13 x 9-inch pan with cooking spray. Pour caramel mixture evenly over the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with pecans or walnuts.
  • Place frozen rolls in 4 rows by 3 rows evenly on the caramel-pecan mixture.
  • Cover with plastic wrap generously sprayed with cooking spray or just use a lightweight kitchen towel.
  • Place pan on top of stove right before you go to bed to let dough rise overnight or at least 5-6 hours.
  • If not doubled in size in the morning turn the oven on for 1 hour. The actual rising time depends also on the temperature of the kitchen.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Carefully remove plastic wrap from rolls. Bake 20 minutes or until rolls are a deep golden brown. Immediately place a rimmed cookie sheet over the baking pan and invert.
Let the baking pan set a few minutes before removing the rimmed baking sheet.
Cool slightly and transfer to a serving tray.
Cleaning Tip: When finished with the saucepan be sure to add water to soak it immediately as the caramel hardens.

  1. My mother-in-law made THE BEST homemade caramel rolls. When I recently asked my sister-in-law for the recipe, I decided that, although I could make them, I choose to remember. Too much time and effort to try and re-create a roll that I likely cannot replicate. Your recipe sounds much easier.
