Directions
-
In a small saucepan, combine 3/4 cup butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1 cup chopped pecans. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
-
Pour the hot caramel mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased 13x9-inch baking pan.
-
In a large bowl, dissolve 1 packet of yeast in 3/4 cup warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
-
Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 egg, 8 oz softened cream cheese, and enough flour to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
-
Mix remaining granulated sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle over the dough, leaving a small border.
-
Roll the dough up tightly from the long side, then cut into 1-inch thick slices.
-
Place each slice cut-side up into the prepared baking pan, pressing them down slightly to fit.
-
Cover the pan loosely and let the buns rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.
-
Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC). Bake the buns for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Let the buns cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then immediately invert onto a serving plate so the caramel topping covers the buns.
-
Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, sweet sticky buns.
