Ingredients needed
- Frozen Parker House Rolls or Refrigerator Biscuits
- Butter or margarine
- Brown sugar
- Light corn syrup
- Cinnamon
How to prepare this recipe
Take the rolls out of the freezer and set them on the counter. They do not have to be completely thawed before you start.
Soften one stick of butter. Sometimes I put the butter in the microwave for a few seconds, just enough to soften it up.
Put one stick of butter, ½ cup of brown sugar, one teaspoon of cinnamon, and ½ cup of Light Corn Syrup in a bowl.
Now you need the hand mixer.
Mix it up! It should be nice and creamy, as shown in the photo.
Spread the sugar mixture in a 13" x 9" dish that has been well coated with non-stick spray.
It might take a little work, but don't worry, you will get it.
This is how to prep the bread dough
Place the dinner rolls in the sugar mixture. They do not have to be thawed at this point. Just set them in there and slightly press them down. You can also cut each roll in half if you prefer.
Or if you can't easily find the frozen bread rolls. You can also use a loaf of frozen bread dough. Just cut each loaf into 24 or so pieces.
Put the rolls in a warm place and let them rise until they double in size.
Don't forget to cover the rolls with a towel or piece of foil so that the top doesn't dry out.
How to prep the refrigerator biscuits
Here is how I use the refrigerator biscuits. I used the Pillsbury Grands Butter flavor. Cut each biscuit into four pieces and place it in the baking dish. These are ready to bake now. No need to wait for them to rise. So simple!
For either method, bake the Super Easy Sticky Buns until golden brown. Start checking on them after about 20 minutes. Using the biscuit dough, I baked mine for about 22 minutes. The other roll dough was closer to 30 minutes before they were done.
And here are the photos of both after baking...
The dough that I purchased in the freezer section of the store...
here are the finished buns using refrigerator biscuits. My family now tells me they prefer this method! Although, no matter how I prepare them, they always disappear quickly.
When you take them out of the oven, let them set to cool for about 5 minutes. If they sit too long, they might start to stick a bit. Now, flip them over. I have mine on a cookie sheet coated with non-stick spray. It really helps for easier cleanup. Let all the ooey, gooey, wonderful stuff drip out of the pan.
Let the Sticky Buns cool slightly and serve.
If you want them for breakfast and prefer to prepare them the night before, simply follow the recipe and directions and let them cool after baking. Then, wrap in foil. In the morning, pop them in a low heat oven, about 170 degrees, for 10-15 minutes to warm them up.
