Ingredients

16 to 18 unbaked frozen dinner rolls
1 (3-ounce) package regular butterscotch pudding mix, not instant
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted

Directions

The night before place frozen rolls in well greased Bundt pan. Sprinkle dry pudding mix over rolls. Sprinkle brown sugar over pudding mix. Sprinkle chopped pecans over brown sugar. Pour melted butter over all. To prevent the dough from forming a hard crust while its rising overnight, cover with a damp towel or tightly wrap with plastic wrap. Let rise overnight at room temperature, about 8 to 10 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Bake in oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Turn pan over onto a serving platter to remove. Serve by pulling apart chunks with forks.

easiest most delicious coffee cake ever
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this several times over the last few weeks and my family just can't get enough! If you buy one of those bags of 70... frozen dinner rolls and a few extra boxes of the pudding mix, it's easy to whip up time and again without running to the grocery store. Plus it reheats great the next day if you happen to have some leftover (or eat it for dessert!). This is one of my new Sunday morning favorites!Read more

Totally Tasty!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My mom's coworkers tried this recipe and raved about it at work. We thought we'd try it for our New Year's Day brunch. As... we had difficulty finding kosher dinner rolls, we substituted frozen challah, which also has a yeast component. It was absolutely wonderful, and so simple!Read more

Very Good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I could not find non-instant butterscotch pudding or french vanilla cool whip. I used butterscotch instant pudding and added... 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla to regular cool whip. The rolls rose overnight. This morning I cooked them. The topping was awesome. The actual bread did not taste like much. Maybe it was the brand that I used. Next time I will use buttered biscuits. Will definitely make it again.Read more

so good and easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made mine and it was perfect! A friend of mine took it for a potluck at work. Everyone was asking her for the recipe. She... told me to put mine in the microwave the night before covered with two damp kitchen towels. There is another tip, the butter has to be warm because last time I made it, I melted the butter but it was not warm. The caramel was not as good and most of the caramel stayed in the pan. I cut the amount of sugar and it was good anyway. My husband is always asking for the sticky buns. He calls this cake sticky buns. Thanks Paula. It so good and easy!Read more
