Overnight Caramel Rolls
This recipe yields soft, fluffy rolls filled with a brown sugar and cinnamon mixture, all drenched in a buttery caramel sauce. It’s the ideal way to wake up your taste buds in the morning!
Ingredients:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk, warmed
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for filling)
- 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, combine warm milk and sugar; sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the milk mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until combined.
- Add the remaining flour gradually until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes or until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- In another bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter. Roll the risen dough out on a floured surface into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the brown sugar mixture evenly over the dough. Sprinkle with nuts if using. Roll up tightly from one long edge to the other to form a log.
- Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- The next morning, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Allow the rolls to rise for 30 minutes while the oven is heating up.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown. Drizzle with caramel sauce if desired and serve warm.
