CARAMEL CINNAMON ROLLS RECIPE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the warm water, sugar and yeast and stir well. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it gets bubbly and activates the yeast.
• Add the melted butter, eggs, salt, and 2 cups of flour, then mix on low using the bread hook for 2 minutes, or until everything is well-mixed.
• Add an additional 3.5 cups of flour, then stir on low to combine. You may need to add up to 1/2 a cup more (you will know you've added enough flour when the dough pulls away from the sides of the mixing bowl). Once all of the flour has been added, continue to knead on low for 3 minutes more.
• Turn off the mixer and cover the bowl with a kitchen towel. Let the dough rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
• Once the dough has double, turn it out onto a floured surface and form it into a small rectangle with your hands. Then, using a rolling pin, gently roll the dough into an approximately 24" x 12" rectangle (should be about 1/2" thick).
• Using an offset spatula, or knife, carefully spread the 1/2 cup of soft or melted butter evenly onto the rolled dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar evenly over the top, then pat down gently.
• Starting at either 24" side, roll the dough up evenly making sure to get a nice tight tube, then cut into 12 evenly sized slices using a very sharp knife (they should be about 2" each). We recommend using a ruler and pre-marking before you actually make any cuts.
• Lay the slices in a greased 9 x 13" baking pan, cover loosely with a kitchen towel, and let the cinnamon rolls rise for another 30 minutes or until double and touching in the pan.
• While your dough is rising, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Once risen, bake in a preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the bottom and the top are golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and pour the warm caramel sauce over the tops while they are still warm. Let them cool for about 5 minutes, then serve warm. Enjoy!

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.

Steps:

• Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Sir in salt, shortening, and 1/2 cup sugar. Let cool until lukewarm, at least 10 minutes.
• Dissolve yeast in a bowl of 1/4 cup warm water. Pour into the milk mixture; add flour and eggs. Mix well; cover loosely with damp cloth and let dough rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough. Cover and let rise again until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll into three 9x15-inch rectangles. Spread each rectangle with 2 tablespoons butter.
• Mix 3/4 cup brown sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Sprinkle mixture equally over the 3 rectangles. Roll each rectangle tightly beginning at the long side. Cut into 9 equal slices, yielding 27 rolls total.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, 3/4 cup butter, pecans, and corn syrup in a bowl. Sprinkle mixture equally into 3 baking pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until caramel is bubbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and place 9 rolls in each pan. Let rise again until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
• Bake in the hot oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Invert rolls onto another dish or aluminum foil immediately. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 pan with the Reynolds Release, that new non-stick foil (that stuff is a GODSEND!).
• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Stir well to break up any brown sugar clumps. Pour in the bottom of the pan.
• Sprinkle in the nuts evenly over the mixture. Place the roll dough on top of the nuts.
• Bake until rolls are brown, 20-30 minute Remove from the oven and immediately invert on a serving plate. Drizzle any remaining caramel in the pan over the rolls. Serve warm with a pot of good coffee or a tall glass of cold milk.

OVERNIGHT FAST AND EASY GOURMET CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• Place cinnamon rolls overnight in a greased 9x13 pan (or a springform pan) OR place rolls in pan at least 4 hours to raise. I typically throw them in the oven so they are ready to go in the morning.
• Bake rolls for 18-20 minutes at 350 degrees.
• While rolls are baking, combine the rest of the ingredients in a small pot and heat until thoroughly combined (no sugar particles remaining). Set aside.
• Take rolls out to cool, and drizzle a layer of glaze on top. Keep extra glaze to pour on individual rolls.
• Enjoy!

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.
