These are a new treasure at our house, warm rolls filled with brown sugar and cinnamon and topped with gooey caramel sauce and chopped pecans! I am always looking for recipes for breakfast that I can make the night before to help with the morning rush. Simple to make using frozen bread dough and yummy to eat. My family likes a lot of caramel on their rolls so I double the heavy cream and powdered sugar mixture to give it the extra goo my family loves. Enjoy!
Easy Caramel Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients
· 1¼ cups powdered sugar
· 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
· 1 cup pecans coarsely chopped
· 1/2 cup brown sugar
· 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
· 2 frozen white bread dough loaves thawed
· 3 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
1. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream. It will be a thick paste, which is normal.
Spread into the baking dish using a spoon or spatula.
3. Sprinkle pecans over top.
4. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in small bowl, set aside.
5. On a surface, sprayed with cooking spray & lightly floured, roll out 1 loaf into a rectangle [roughly the same size as the 9x13 pan]. Pour half of the butter onto the dough and spread it out. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon/sugar mixture over the butter.
* You may need to let the thawed dough sit at room temperature for a few minutes to make it softer and easier to roll out.
6. Roll up the dough [roll up from the longer side of the rectangle shape, not the shorter sides] and cut dough roll into 8 pieces.
Place each piece in the pan on top of the pecans. Do 4 rows of 4 cinnamon rolls in each row.
7. Repeat with the 2nd loaf of bread.
8. Cover the dish with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray [the part of the plastic wrap that touches the rolls].
9. Leave in fridge overnight. In the morning, let the baking dish sit out, covered, at room temperature for 1 hour.
10. Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes.
11. Let the baking dish cool for 5 minutes.
12. Carefully take your pan and turn it upside down, over a serving platter or cutting board, and serve warm.
