So Easy Caramel Rolls Food

EASY CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• 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 5 minutes.
• Spray bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray. Pour caramel mixture evenly over bottom of pan. Sprinkle with pecans.
• Place frozen rolls in 4 rows by 3 rows evenly on caramel-pecan mixture. Cover with plastic wrap generously sprayed with cooking spray. (Save frosting packet for another use.)
• Refrigerate rolls 5 hours or overnight to let dough rise.
• About 2 3/4 hours before serving rolls, remove rolls from refrigerator and place pan on cooling rack. Let rolls continue to rise at room temperature about 2 hours or until almost double in size (actual rising time depends on temperature of kitchen).
• Heat oven to 375°F. Carefully remove plastic wrap from rolls. Cover pan with foil. Bake 20 minutes; remove foil. Bake 15 to 20 minutes longer or until rolls are deep golden brown. Immediately place heatproof serving plate or tray upside down on pan; carefully turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over rolls 1 minute; remove pan. Serve warm.

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.

PULL-APART CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch square baking dish with butter.
• Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut the biscuits into quarters, then toss in the cinnamon-sugar until well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• For the caramel sauce: Meanwhile, heat the cream, brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally with a heatproof silicone spatula, until all of the sugar has dissolved, about 4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of the caramel sauce for serving.
• Pour the remaining caramel over the biscuits. Bake until golden brown and crisp at the edges, about 30 minutes.
• For the whipped cream: While biscuits are baking, whisk the cream and confectioners' sugar together in another medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy and whipped to stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Let the biscuits cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter. Drizzle with the reserved 1/4 cup of caramel sauce and serve warm with the whipped cream.

CARAMEL CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Warm the milk in a small saucepan until steaming. Dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Combine the milk, shortening, granulated sugar, salt and eggs in a large bowl with a wooden spoon. Add the yeast mixture and mix until combined. Stir in the flour to form a soft dough. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the caramel: Combine the brown sugar, corn syrup and butter in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil; cook until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the heavy cream; whisk until combined and slightly cooled. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet; spread the caramel on the baking sheet and let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Mix the brown sugar, melted butter and cinnamon in a bowl. Punch down the dough and roll out into a 12-by-24-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the filling on the dough and roll up, starting at a long side. Cut into 1-inch pieces and arrange cut-side up on the caramel. Cover loosely and let sit at room temperature until puffed, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Uncover the rolls and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. (Put a baking sheet on the lower oven rack to catch any drips.) Let cool slightly on the baking sheet, then invert onto a large cutting board or platter.

BEST EVER CARAMEL ROLLS

TOO EASY GOOEY CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• All this is done the night before: spray your bundt pan well and place evenly the frozen rolls in pan. Sprinkle the dry butterscotch pudding (instant will not work) evenly on top of rolls and sprinkle pecan pieces over pudding powder (add pecans 2nd, not last).
• Heat the butter to just melted, not hot in microwave and stir in brown sugar. If the butter is too hot, the brown sugar will separate and be hard to blend together pour brown sugar/butter syrup over rolls evenly.
• That's it!
• Place bundt pan in the cold oven overnight.
• When you arise the next morning, set the oven temp to 325°F
• Check the rolls FIRST before turning oven on to see if they rose over the top of the bundt pan. If they did, push the rolls hanging over back GENTLY.
• Don't remove rolls while the oven is heating, leave inches.
• Bake about 25 minutes until rolls seem firm on top and done in the middle, but don't over bake.
• Remove bundt pan from oven and let cool 5-10 minutes in pan (I usually wait only 5 minutes).
• Have ready a platter or pizza pan (holes covered) big enough to hold the rolls being careful not to burn yourself, place platter over the top of Bundt pan and quickly invert.
• Do this over the counter top so if some spills, it won't get on the floor.
• All that's left is to enjoy!
• Company or family will think you slaved hours, it looks so yummy.
• This is great for bake sales also.
• Tip: don't put over 22-24 at most rolls in the pan.
• I always use just 22.
• Any more and they will rise over the top of the pan and hang over.
• If this happens, while rolls are cooling, carefully push back the edges of the rolls and gently push down on the top of them.
• I use more butter and sugar than other recipes because my family really likes alot of caramel.
• However, you could cut back the butter to 1/2 stick and the sugar 1/2 cup.
• I just prefer too much to too little.
• The caramel can be scooped up and put toward the middle rolls.
