QUICK CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• Place butter in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan; heat in a 375° oven until melted. Sprinkle with pecans. Add ice cream topping and mix well. Remove dough from tubes (do not unroll); cut each section of dough into six rolls. Arrange rolls in prepared pan with cut side down. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Immediately invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm.

BEST EVER CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
• Roll out 1 thawed loaf into a large rectangle. Brush half of the melted butter evenly over dough. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over butter. Roll up dough into a log starting with the long edge closest to you. Cut log into 1-inch slices with a sharp serrated knife. Arrange slices cut-side up in an ungreased 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Repeat step 2 with second thawed loaf.
• Combine brown sugar, vanilla ice cream, and 1/2 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; stir until melted and well-blended, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour caramel mixture over rolls in the baking pan. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate until rolls double, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before serving.

MOM'S ULTRA SOFT AND TENDER CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. I always aim for the water to be the warmness of a bottle of milk that you would give to a baby. Set aside.
• In a small pan over medium heat, melt shortening in 1 cup of hot water. Remove from heat and add 1 cup cold water. Add the shortening and water mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer, and then add the 3/4 cup of sugar, salt, eggs, and dissolved yeast. With a dough hook attachment, mix these ingredients. Then add the flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing in the flour almost completely each time before adding the next cup. When all flour has been incorporated, you will have a very soft dough that is easy to handle.
• At this point you can either use the dough right away or store the dough in the refrigerator for up to a week to make the rolls at a later time. To continue making this recipe, cover the bottom and sides of a large bowl with a very light coating of oil. Place dough in the oiled bowl, turning dough over to get some oil on all sides, so the top of the dough stays soft. Cover top of bowl with a clean kitchen towel and set in a warm place. Let dough rise to about double the original amount. This can take at least an hour, depending on the warmth of your surroundings, etc. While dough is rising, prepare the caramel (directions are listed below). Once dough has doubled, score it in half and roll out each half into a large rectangle shape, about 14″ x 8″. Melt the 1/4 cup of butter in a small bowl and brush dough with half of the butter. In a small bowl, stir together the 2/3 cup of sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle half the cinnamon sugar evenly over the melted butter. Starting with the wide side of the dough rectangle, roll the dough up tightly, pinching the seam to seal it at the end. Cut dough roll into 12 slices. Place dough, cut sides up, in a 9″ x 13″ pan that already has caramel sauce in it. Repeat with the other half of the dough, to create a second pan of rolls. Cover pans with kitchen towels and allow dough to rise in a warm place for a second time, until doubled. This can take at least an hour, depending on the warmth of your surroundings.
• To make the rolls at a later date, place the dough in a large airtight container that has a bit of oil in it to coat the dough. Spray one side of a piece of plastic wrap with nonstick spray and place it directly on top of the dough (so it doesn't stick to the dough). Put a lid on the bowl and place the bowl in the refrigerator. The dough will still rise while in the refrigerator, just at a much slower rate. When ready to make rolls, prepare the caramel and divide it into two pans. Then score the dough in half and continue with the recipe as normal. Note that when the dough is cold, it will take longer to rise in the pan.
• Preheat oven to 350°. Place prepared pans of caramel and rolled dough in oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until nicely browned. I found that the stoneware from The Pampered Chef required a bit more time in the oven than a metal pan. If you want to turn the rolls out onto a platter, let the rolls rest for 5 minutes after removing them from the oven before doing so. We usually just serve the rolls right from the pan.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together brown sugar, cream, butter, corn syrup, and water until melted and combined. Heat to just near boiling, but do NOT boil. It will have a cloudy appearance and will stay softer once the rolls are cooked. Divide caramel between two 9″ x 13″ pans. Set pans aside to let the caramel cool while the dough is rising.

• Combine butter and vanilla ice cream in a saucepan and melt stirring constantly.
• Add sugars and heat to boiling, over medium high heat stirring constantly with a whisk.
• Bring to a rolling boil while whisking the entire time for two or three minutes.
• Remove saucepan from burner and let sit for 15 minutes or so to cool down.
• Once cooled put this mixture in to the refrigerator for an hour or so to thicken up.
• Spray glass baking dish with nonstick spray and arrange the frozen cinnamon rolls evenly in the dish. If you are using all 12 cinnamon rolls you might want to do six rolls per 9x13" dish.
• Pour cold caramel mixture over the rolls and set in the oven overnight (while the oven is off)
• Store the packet of icing that comes with the rolls in the fridge overnight. You'll use that on top of the rolls once they're cooked in the morning.
• In the morning do not take the rolls out of the oven.
• They will remain in the oven while preheating.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes at 350 degrees (Total - this amount of time includes the preheatinuntil browned on top.

EASY CHRISTMAS CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. Let bread loaves partially thaw, but not rise. Cut or break one loaf into small pieces. Place on the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan. Cut up remaining loaf.
• 2. Combine butter, sugar, cinnamon (if using), milk, and pudding mix in a saucepan over medium/low heat, stirring to combine. Heat until smooth and butter is melted (warm, but not hot)
• 3. Pour over bread dough in pan. Arrange remaining dough pieces over the top evenly. Cover with saran wrap sprayed with non stick spray. Let rise in fridge, or away from any direct heat, overnight (it may rise a bit over the top of the pan).
• 4. Bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes. If the top starts to get dark, place a piece of aluminum foil over (lightly, not tight) so the middle can fully cook, but the top won't burn. When cooked, invert the pan onto a serving platter or cookie sheet. The caramel will run down the sides, lift off the pan. Enjoy!
